I am trying to link database servers and I noticed that one is named: test_host\test_database. When I make the link, I can’t query it. I get a log in failure timeout. In area configuration remote and local connections are enabled.
Also SQL Server Express won’t allow me to enter an IP address.
So how would I link to this server?
Alias. Create this on the machine and it worked. Need it for those tricky machines that are behind different domains.
