I have installed SQL Server Express on a Windows 2003 platform.

I have set the Windows firewall to allow sqlservr.exe and sqlbrowser.exe and
udp port 1434. SQL browser is running.

I have enable tcp/ip protocol. The SQL Server 2005 Surface Area
Configuration is set to local and remote connections using tcp/ip only.

The Server Properties are set to Server authentication Mixed mode.

I have set up two users in mixed mode. I can connect locally through
Management Studio Express with both these users.

But if I try to connect remotely, I get the error "... under the default
settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections (provider; named pipes
provider, error: 40 - could not open a connection to SQL server)(Microsoft
SQL Server, Error: 53).

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks for your help, but I don't understand what you mean.

Could you elaborate, please?

Many thanks.
