Question

Can I configure hibernate properties to connect without using an instance name to sql server 2005? I need to force it to use localhost as the hostname and not specify the instance (same as you can do with the sql server enterprise manager).

Yes, you can. You set it up as you normally would in the connection string:

Server=(local);initial catalog=MyDataBase;Integrated Security=SSPI
