Hey Guys,

I'm having a problem connecting to a remote SQL Server database after SP3. I'm getting access denied/database doesn't exist.

Could this have to do with "Enable Cross-Database ownership"?

I can ping the machine, but I can't connect via any applications OR Query analyzer

Any clues?!

the error is

Query analyzer:

Server: Msg 17, Level 16, State 1
[DBNETLIB]Sql Server does not exist or access denied

asp application:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'

[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.

Shouldn't have anything to do with "Enable Cross-Database ownership". I would check with your network admins to verify that they haven't blocked port 1433 in the firewalls and routers now because of the virus, even though blocking 1434 is enough.

Try log on locally on the server and open enterprise manager or query analyzer and connect.
