SQL 2000 TIMEOUT ERROR WHEN TRYING TO CONNECT USING C#

=?Utf-8?B?VGVycmFuY2U=?=

I have an application that runs fine on my machine(of course) that access the
local Sql Server. However, when trying to run this application from another
machine I receive a Sql timeout error. I thought it was my stored procedure
but that doesn't seem to be the case. The following are the connection
strings that I've tried:

//private string connstring = "integrated security=SSPI;d ata source=<ip
address>;"
// "persist security info=False;init ial catalog=project DB";

private string connstring = "pwd=<password> ;uid=<username> ;" +
"database=proje ctDB;server=<ip address>";

//private string connstring = "Data Source=<ip address>;" +
// "Initial Catalog=project DB;" +
// "User Id=<username>;" +
// "Password=<pass word>";

Do anyone know how I can get over this hump? By the way I'm running the
application locally on the remote computer.

1. If the SQL Server and the app are not on the same computer, make sure the
SQL Server allows remote access.
2. Since you pass username/password in ConnectionStrin g, make sure the SQL
Server has mixed security mode enabled (by default installed, only Windows
security mode is enabled).

How do I determine if the sql server does or does not allow remote access?

I checked the Sql Server and it has Allow other SQL Servers to connect
remotely to this SQl using RPC. Is this what your were talking about?

OK, if the SQL Server is accessible from other computer, you then need to
make sure it does accept username/pasword pair (that is, mixed security mode
is enabled).
