    Done before the connection string? The connection string is there to enable you to connect to a database. Those constrings can be used over the internet.

    Can you explain more explicitly what you are seeking?

  • Actually I am developing desktop application which requires db access over the net......

    The application will be running on different machines located over different geographical locations, but on a centralized database located on a sql server machine.........

    This is possible on sql server 2005........but this needs some settings on the sql server 2005 at the server side.........

    Actually, I have got some idea that, some port no specifications need to be done.........

    Help me...............................:crying:

  • You need to configure your firewalls and routers to permit traffic between the locations. The port setting will depend on your database setup (some use default port, others configure a different port number).

    You will need to verify what protocols you are using (surface area configuration can show you if you have tcp/ip enabled or just named pipes).
