However, when I use the same credentials within this install I get:      [java] java.sql.SQLException: Network error IOException: Connection refused: connect      [java]     at net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.JtdsConnection.<init>(JtdsConnection.java:434) Do you have any ideas for me? --------------------------------------------------
