客户端-服务器应用程序的VB.NET连接字符串

Question

Case :

I'm creating a desktop application with VB.NET (Windows Forms), and using SQL Server 2008 Express for its database.

Problem :

I want to create a client-server application, it means I just need 1 database on the server.

I have a computer and a laptop. I set my laptop's IP to 192.168.1.1 and my computer's IP to 192.168.1.2 .

Now I place the database on my computer, the database name is db_transportasi .

Problem is, how to connect my computer's database from my laptop?

Specification :

I'm using this string below for my connection :

Data Source=ARVID-THEODORUS\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DB_TRANSPORTASI;Integrated Security=True

I already setup my SQL Configuration Manager, enabled the TCP/IP, switch to the IP Addresses tab and set the IPAII Port Properties to 2301

I turned off my firewall so I don't have to set any exception.

Here is the SQL Server SS :

Question :

1. How to connect to my computer's database from my laptop?

2. Could you show me the example for my laptop VB.NET Connection String?

Thanks before.
