 SQL Server does not exist or Access Denied Error
Database connectivity, Error: Access Denied, SQL Server, VB.NET, Visual Basic .NET
I have a VB.Net app which connect to a SQL Server database, just recently the technical guys removed the DNS server from the network for maintenance. and now my application cannot see the SQL server. I can ping it using its IP address and it responds but even if I configure my application to use the server's IP to connect it still gives the SQL Server does not exist or Access Denied Error.
