Hi,I am running SQL Server 2005 on a Windows 2003 Server for production and on an XP box for development. While on production sever while running 'SQL Server Management Studio' and I try to connect to my development box I receive a timeout error. If I am on the development (XP) and try to connect to production things work great. Why can't I connect to my development database while running 'SQL Management Studio' on the production machine?Thanks in advance for your help,Terry

Best guess is you do not have your development box configured to handle remote connections.
GO into your configuration tools and check the allow remote access.

also check if there is a firewall

It was a firewall issue. Here is the document that I referenced:
