When I attempt to connect to SQL server using enterprise manager I get the strange message:
"SQL Server is not known to be running. Are you sure you want to connect?"
What is it trying to tell me?
Is there some special caution required in trying to connect to a server that is not known to be running? If so, how do I find out if a server is running before trying to connect to it, and why doesn't enterprise manager provide this service?
