Re: invalid server name error

Thanks a lot Erland.

This is very helpful.

It takes about 10 seconds for the app to reject the login.

Sorry about the port 1421 miscommunication.
I am a MySQL person and was told by the vendor that
SQL runs on port 1421.

I'm going to try and download the client.
I appreciate that link a lot.

What is funny is out of 10 computers, 2 of them started
working magically and I have not changed anything.
This is some Windows quirkiness that is confusing me
making me think this is more of a networking thing than
SQL.


I'll followup with whatever I find.
