  Hi

  I want to know how to hide all the instances in sql server database engine

  Here i have done the below procedure

  In SQL Server Configuration Manager, expand SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration, right-click Protocols for <server instance>, and then select Properties.

  On the Flags tab, in the HideInstance box, select Yes, and then click OK to close the dialog box. The change takes effect immediately for new connections.

  After that i have restarted the services still instances are not hide

  Please help me on this
