hs3221 - Specifying the host

 

 

Host name

Type in, or use the drop-down list to specify the host name of the SQL Server server.

 

Please note that if SQL Server is installed as a named instance, you should enter the name of your machine and the instance name in the Host name field in the following format: computer_name\sqlserver_instance_name (e.g. "MYCOMPUTER\SQLEXPRESS").

 

Authentication Type

Specify the type of the database server authentication to be used for the connection: RadioButton SQL Server Authentication or RadioButton Windows Authentication. It is strongly recommended to avoid using SQL Server authentication with "sa" as the login.

 

Afterwards you should specify authorization settings: User name and Password.
