I installed an instance of SQL Server 2008 R2 Express on my 32 bit Windows 7 machine. I can see it and connect to it with SQL Server Management Studio locally but not on the network.
SQL Server Configuration Manager Settings
In the Server Properties from SSMS
The Firewall is turned off for testing
When I try to see this instance with a command prompt (sqlcmd -L) from another computer I get a list of network servers. Sometimes it shows up and sometimes it doesn't. If it shows up I still can't seem to connect and the error message number is 26. If feels like there is some switch somewhere that needs to be turned on.
I am leaving this up there for any other users who have mental blocks occasionally... I had not turned off all the firewalls. In windows7 you have three different firewalls and you have to turn off the right one
