Thanks for this.

I'm worried that these docs are much too specific for people installing and using a GUI/SQL server configuration manager.

I think all that is required is a comment that TCP/IP is required to be enabled on the SQL instance. This isn't docs for managing SQL servers (it's just a client) and this becomes maintenance overhead as the GUI/process changes. If there are official MS docs to link to, I'm happy with that, but not to link to unaffiliated 3rd parties.

PS same feedback as last PR regarding commit message 🙏
