Well, I'm trying to do so. I keep running into 'ZTI error opening sql connection general network error' when connecting. I've given the account that MDT is using permission to the database in SQL, I've enabled named pipes and TCP/IP, and also made sure in Management studio that the server is allowing remote connections. Here is a screen shot of the settings : [cid:[email protected]] And I've attached my CustomSettings.ini. Do you see anything wrong here?
