go to your router http://192.168.1.1 and create a DNS Server with your local IP: 192.168.1.xx

exemple in this img:


And from Advenced Security open the ports!
The ports are someting like TCP IP:192.168.1.xx start to: 80 end : 80

do not open ports like start 80.... end 55999 this is crapy!:punch:

PS : You could at least explain ;; "What a loopback adapter does, and where do you need it for"

What is the Microsoft Loopback adapter and why do I need it for SQL Server?

The Microsoft Loopback adapter is a testing tool for a virtual network environment where network access is not available. Also, you must use the Loopback adapter if there are conflicts with a network adapter or with a network adapter driver. You can bind network clients, protocols, and other network configuration items to the Loopback adapter, and you can install the network adapter driver or network adapter later while retaining the network configuration information.

SQL Server is dependent on network functionality - even for the set-up routines. Specifically it needs to use named-pipe/mailslot functionality on NT machines. These usually require a network card to be present. If you don't have a network card then go to control panel/networks, choose add adapter and then add the Microsoft loopback adapter - which is just a dummy driver, no hardware involved. This needs to have working network protocol(s) bound to it. Let whichever protocols you have use default parameters, EXCEPT for tcp-ip. If you are using this then do NOT specify dhcp assigned address, use 192.168.1.1 as the IP address and 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask. This is a standard RFC1918 non-routed IP address so shouldn't clash with any dial-up address you may be given by an ISP.

If the server service does not start after installing the loopback adapter and you get the following message in the event log, then you need to re-install your *NT* service pack to synchronise your NT networking files. "The server service terminated with the following error: Not enough server storage is available to process this command"

One way of testing that the named-pipes functionality works is to run the makepipe and readpipe utilities that come with SQL Server. Run makepipe in one command window. Then run readpipe in another. If these work (i.e. the readpipe connects to makepipe and closes it down) then it is a good indication that networking functionality is ok.

For Win9x machines you don't need a loopback adapter to install but you do need to have the "MS Network Family Driver" installed and the default network client.
