Additional Information
All MS SQL Servers on our network run on the standard MS SQL Server port of 1433.  Sometimes, when trying to connect to your database, you may receive an error like this:

------------------------------ SQL server does not allow remote connections. ------------------------------

If you receive an error stating that SQL server doesn't allow remote connections, your ISP (Qwest, ComCast, Cox, RoadRunner, Verizon, etc) is blocking you from connecting to SQL servers.  In order to resolve that problem, you will need to contact the company providing you with internet access and have them unblock port 1433. 

If you are receiving this error while trying to connect to MS SQL on a dedicated server you may also change the port used by MS SQL by following the instructions in the article located at How To Configure MS SQL Server on your Dedicated Server for an Alternate Port
