Use sockets, and no other protocol - and use SSL.

Subject: MS SQL Inter-database query question

Hello ...

  Just a quick question:

  When a query is performed from one database to another
  database on the same server, does the information pass
  over a socket ? or some other system ?

  If it is a socket, is it sent such that sniffing of the 
  information is possible (i.e. sniffer on a computer in
  the same network can view data transfer) ?

  Thanks ...

-- Michael
