I am installing SCCM 2012 with a remote SQL 2012 server. The account I am using has local admin rights on the remote SQL server and full access to the SQL instance. But I am getting the following error Setup is unable to connect to SQL Server with connection information provided. Verify the following: The SQL Server and instance names are entered correctly The specified SQL Server instance is not configured to use dynamic ports If a firewall is enable on the SQL Server, inbound rules exist to allow connections to the correct ports The account used to run Setup has permissions to connect to the specified SQL Server instances I have disable all the firewalls, I can connect to the SQL server and instance with management studio. The error appears very quickly and there is nothing in the SQL server logs about a failed login. Please help I have run out of ideas Suz xx
