Not this time. AFAIK, he tried to access the db from the server using the
server name in the connect string. This didn't work. Using localhost
worked. So would using a name defined in the host file, I assume. Here,
the server is the client!

If he had tried from the client, your comment would be correct. However,
he wrote something like:
