Answer 1

Modify the connection string in your application that uses DB to point to your SQL server, like this:

Data Source=myServerAddress;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;Integrated Security=SSPI;

For example, if the name of your SQL server host computer is nysqlsrvr1, and your database is called appdb connection string would look like this:

Data Source=nysqlsrvr1;Initial Catalog=appdb;Integrated Security=SSPI;

Make sure the user running your DB application has permissions to access the database, or replace Integrated Security=SSPI; with appropriate user name and password. You can find more information about DB connection strings here http://www.connectionstrings.com/.
