Error 233

  • Hai,

    I'm using windows XP SP2 and I have installed SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition. I usually connect my SQL Server 2005 using windows authentication mode and server name as default. I have a only one server to which 4 client machines are connected. When I'm connecting to my default server domain I get this message and I am unable to enter into SSMS

    "A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (Provider: Named pipes Provider, error: 0- No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 233)"

  • This could be any of the following

    1. The required network protocols are not enabled..

    2. Remote Connections disabled

    3. Windows firewall may be blocking the connection...

    --Ramesh
