Hi there,

Could anybody tell me in what way the communication between client and SQL Server is effected by client side configuration through the SQL Server Client Network utility (C:\WINDOWS\system32\cliconfg.exe).

The default configuration does not have any protocols enabled. Is native SQL communication still possible?

Kind regards,

Dave

Hi Dave,

Above utility belongs to SQL Server 2000 version.

SQL Server Configuration Manager utility is used for SQL Server 2008 version.

Without enabling any protocol communication is not possible.

Regards,

Suresh

Hi Suresh,

Thanx for the quick reply.

Is the new client utility installed as a default OS component like the 2000 version or does is need a seperate client installation? If this component does need a separate client installation, would this always be the adviced approach in order to make sure the latest driver versions en configuration tools are used?

Kind regards,

Dave

SQL Server client software is not part of OS. It needs to be installed separately. Service Pack is applicable to client tools also.
