Connect string by IP Address when mutliple instances

  • Can you connect by IP Address instead of named pipes when there are multiple instances on a server?

  • Yes, assuming the TCP/IP Net Library is enabled in the server and the client network utilities and firewalls between you and the server are configured to allow that traffic through.

    We do it extensively as we have many domains that are not trusted to each other, so we are able to connect via IP:port or IP:InstanceName

    10.13.0.168:MyInstance  or  10.13.0.168:1839  (1839 is the port that this instance is configured to listen to for commands).

    I have CDO. It's like OCD but all the letters are in alphabetical order... as they should be.

  • Lol, I did it with a comma: 255.255.255.255,1433
