If you use MsSQL Server you must also configure your connections in Client Network Utility to use names rather than Fisical ip number

Copied from SDAC (3.50.0.12) help TMSConnection.Options.NetworkLibrary

The name of the Net-Library (DLL) used to communicate with an instance of SQL Server. The name should not include the path or the .dll file name extension. The default is provided by the SQL Server Client Network Utility.

You can see a list of installed libraries using SQL Server Client Network Utility from MS SQL Server package. For named pipes it is dbnmpntw.
