Unable to connect to SQL Server 2008
June 4th, 2010 // 11:06 pm @ Amar
When you first install SQL Server 2008, you are unable to connect to the SQL Server from another machine in the network. You have enabled remote connections and still whenever you try to connect, you get an access denied error.
Make sure the SQL Server Browser service is running. It is required in order to listen for incoming connections. It may even be Disabled ( as in the case of SQL 2008 R2 Enterprise ).

If you are getting confused about which edition of SharePoint you need, there is a nice handy chart over at Microsoft.
Thanks to my friend Tobias who tweeted about it. A very handy reference when you are trying to match required features with the editions.

If you are an existing MOSS developer, and are tired of going thru training material which tells you what a webpart is and the difference between SPSite and SPWeb, there is some good news. Just stumbled across some free SharePoint 2010 training from Microsoft specifically aimed at existing MOSS developers. Definitely worth having a look if you want to quickly get an overview of this new and exciting platform.
