Connect to SQL Remote Server
Hi Anonymous ,
Check to see if allow remote connections for this server is enabled. In SSMS, right click on the instance name and select Properties. Go to the Connections tab and make sure Allow remote connections to this server is checked. If you need to make a change, you must restart the SQL Server instance to apply the change.
For more details, please refer to these pages.
