  a network related or instance specific error occurred while establishing a connection to sql server was not found or not accisiblle.verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is coinfigured to allow remote connections.(provider:Named pipes provider,error:40-could not open a connection SQL Server) Microsoft SQL Server ,error:1326)

  I tried all resolutions like below:

  1. in sql configuration manager the network Protocol: TCP/IP is enabled.

  2. windows fiewall enabled.

  3.created new inboundrule added 1433 port

  4.restarted all the services

  I tried ping the ip. its connecting

  i tried telnet ipaddress 1433.. It is connecting.

  when tenet is working and connecting to ip address. then why i am not able to connect through management studio?

  Please help me to resolve this. Anything else i need to do?

  I would try the following:

  1. from command prompt using sqlcmd; example :   sqlcmd -S [tcp:]sqlhost\instance -E    or sqlcmd -S [tcp:]sqlhost\instance -U username -P password
  2. from management studio using the following format "tcp:sqlhost\instance"

  Did you also run

  EXEC sp_configure 'remote access', 1
  
  GO 
  
  RECONFIGURE ; 
  
  GO

  Thank you very much for your replies.

  while connecting the remote server ip in the management studio, in the options i selected TCP/IP and timeout period to '0'. Then it worked for me.
