SqlConnection.ConnectionString: Data Source parameter

L

Lloyd Dupont

I used to te able to specify the port in my Data Source parameter like that:

Data Source=myIp,myPort
but it does not work anymore! (I have somewhat the feeling I'm a victim of
windows update)

Any comments?
How do you specify the port?

By default XP SP2 disables the ports. You'll have to open the firewall for
them.
