Hi,I'm trying to move a 2008 database from one SQL server to another. One machine is running XP, the other Windows 7 Home.When I try to use import/export wizard from one machine to the other, but I get this error. >>Failed to connect to server SQL01.>>A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.Both of these machines reside on a LAN, but not on a domain. I'm using windows authentication on both servers, and I can't seem to add one computer account to the other's administrator account. I'm wondering if anyone has some advice they can give me. Thank you for your help.Tim - Newbie |
