First, you need to determine whether "." (the local machine) is indeed valid
for that SQL Server instance. For example, it may actually be something like
".\SQLNAME" .
Also, ensure the userid and password are correct, and that both Windows and
SQL Server authentication are enabled on the SQL Server.

When i try to connect i get this error:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When
connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that
under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
