Redirecting db connections

    Hi

    I have old editions of SQL Server such as 6.5, 7.0, 2000, and 2005. The biggest hold up we have in retiring these servers is the connection string changes that would have to be made. Does anyone know of a way that I could redirect these calls to a newer SQL Server 2012?

    Thanks

    DNS aliases should work. You'd need to wait until the old servers were retired and removed from the domain before setting up the aliases with the same names.
