I think there are two parts to this bug report:

1) We need to support '.' as server name as alias for localhost. 

This is very easy to fix. I'll commit a fix for this later today or tomorrow.

2) We only support TCP/IP for connecting to SQL Server, while SQL Server 2005
and higher (all editions) by default only allows connections through named
pipes or shared memory.

See section 4.1 of this document to enable TCP/IP:
