SQL Server instance is running on the host and accepting TCP/IP connections at the port, and that no firewall is blocking TCP connections to the port.

Please verify the connection properties and check that a SQL Server instance is running on the host and accepting TCP/IP connections at the port, and that no firewall is blocking TCP connections to the port.

what you mean with port?..he needs to give you the Centos IP and login/chat ports witch you copy in your internal.txt(i presume) and you can then connect to his server..

Either a firewall is blocking it or you have the wrong port. It is possible he is using an instance name (<IP>\SQLEXPRESS,29999 in the server name box).
