Connecting to SQL Server 2005 Express using IIS 6.0

Hello,

I can connect to amachine using SQL server 2000 using IIS 6.0. However, I am having trouble connecting to my server that has SQL server express using IIS 6.0. I'm using similar setting for both servers. Is there something else i have to do for SQL server express?

I'm not sure why this is the case. Any information that could help resolve this failed connection would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I would make sure that the remote connections have been enabled on the server, by default this is turned off.

Thank you for your email. My sql server express are already configured according to the tips on this page. I failed to mention that i can connect to the database. It's only when i have to try and connect to the databse wirelessly i'm having trouble establising a connection to the database. But when i connect wirelessly to SQL 2000 i have no trouble.

Any more information would be appreciated.
