title: Stop SQL Server listening on Remote Ports
body: <p>How do I 'lock down' my SQL Server 2005 installation to not listen on remote ports?</p>
  
  <p>My SQL Server 2005 database instances are only used locally on the machine, so I want to prevent it listening on remote ports for security purposes, but do not want to do it via a firewall.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
