The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

remote connection to SQL server issue

Asked by TheMoog in SQL Server 2008, C / C++ / C# Editors and IDEs, C++ Programming Language

Im using SQLAPI++ to connect unmanaged c++ to sql.  On local machine works perfect. I can get as many instances open as I need all looking at the SQL, all connections fine.

I then setup sql server 2008 to handle remote connections by enabling  Named Pipes in the configuration manager and restarting as I learned by default it doesnt allow remote connections.

from another machine i want to connect to the database.  I can ping the server CAVIARIS  the code sees the server but the logon fails?  I dont have any passwords, its windows authentification, I dont care about what authentification it has to be so if I need to change tell me.  

It fails by saying Logon failed for user CAVIARIS\Guest  

I want a number of machines to connect to SQL but Im stuck on the connections.  Do I have to do something in Serrver Management studio?  ie do I have to create a logon before I can go to the client machine and logon, is that the basic philosophy of how this works?  

I need a generic logon for any machine that accesses SQL database, Im hoping I dont have to manually create a new one each time as Im trying to make a cluster of servers all see the same database.  Can someone please walk me through a procedure to get me connected.  its XP  machines are in a network workgroup configuration.

Ive tried scores of combinations but I think Im missing a more general point, thanks
