Adjusting the Firewall

< Previous section  |  Table of Contents  |  Index  |  Next section >

In order for other computers to access SQL Server on the Server machine, you must configure the Server machine's firewall to allow such access. (If SQL Server is already in use at your site, the Server machine is probably configured appropriately all ready.)

If you're running an anti-virus program, it has probably installed its own firewall. Check the program's documentation for how to grant access to SQL Server.
