I have installed SQL Server 2005 some months ago and have been using to connect to a remote instance without any problems.
Now I'm needing to create a local database in my localhost (like I used to do in SQL Server 2000) to try a development at my computer. The problem is I cannot connect to 127.0.0.1 or localhost from SQL Management Studio like I used to do in SQL Server 2000. I don't remember if the setup asked me to enter a user or password for this, I remember in SQL Server 2000 I used "sa" as user.
How can I solve or create a user for localhost?
I also would like this db to be offline, I mean, that it can't be accessed from the internet, not sure if I have to configure something extra.
