Analysis Services connection using AMO

Hi,

I have AS2005 running on a development machine, and i am trying to connect to it via my application running on another machine.

The code is using the Analysis Mangement Object (AMO) API.

Currently, my application code only tries to connect and disconnect from the server.

Server svr = new Server();

svr.Connect(connectionString); < Exception thrown here

svr.Disconnect();

The connectionString simply contains the remote server's name. I have also tried different connection strings but it has not helped.

I have also enabled remote connections on AS, and opened the default port number on the server's firewall.

Every time it tries to connect the exception thrown is:

"Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host."

Can anybody help me with this problem?

I'm not sure if this will help, but I was getting a similar error with

the BI Development Studio. In that case it was a security

issue. Basically, becasue the machine was on a different domain,

I had to create a user on that machine with the same username /

password as the one that I log into my machine with. Have you

tried connecting in any other way?|||

Is the "other machine" an AS2K5 instance?
