From today morning onwards I cannot connect with my remote server.
And receiving the error message,

"An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes provider, Eorror 40- Could not open connection to Sql Server"

So, Is that connection properties were changed ?
How to fix it?

Any ideas are always welcome !
