TomislavFist you need to find out what the instance names are and whether one is a
default instance (both are probably named instances as no-one is listening
to port 1433).
Use either server network utility, svrnetcn.exe, or check the services in
the machine. After you know the instance names, you connect using:
machinename\instancename

That didn't solve it ... both instances are started and appear to be
working on host machine , remote users still cant connect and portscann
shows that port 1443 isn't open .Thx for trying thou.|||You don't say whether these instances are both named or one is a default def
ault instance. You cannot have two
default instances. My guess is that you have two names instance. A named ins
tance does NOT listen on 1433.
Please follow my direction closely to find out whether these are default or
named instances and the name of
the instance.
This is what I write in my earlier post:

As i already wrote (look below) one is default instance , other is named
"second".
