    when ever i tried to access remote instance

    iam getting the following error

    can not connect (instance name)

    instance failure(System.data)

    iam using sqlserver dev edition

    pls give the solution to fix this issue

    Your are having SQL Server 2005 on both the servers.?

    Have you enabled "Allow Remote Access" option ..?

    Do you have a Firewall installed..?, If yes, Have you opened the port for SQL Server..?
