SQLEXPRESS via LAN REFUSE CONNECTION!

0) I've build on my pc a file MDF...i've used it and it's all right.

Then I've decided to use it in LAN on pc-server to share it with my team.

1) The sqlexpress is installad on pc with XP sp2 (as server)

2) Tcp Ip is enabled.

3) Firewall is not running

4) The folder where is located the Mdf file si public without restrictions

5) The autentication is performed via Windows.

6) The service sqlbrowser is enable and running at start.

What's the problem?

In this case, the error message is likely telling you exactly what the problem is: The file is on a network path...

SQL Express does not support attaching files from the network whether they are at a UNC or a mapped drive letter.
