If i got it correctly, you don't want anybody except authorized
personell even viewing sql servers in your network.
What slammer taught us back then was that the best way to secure a
machine is NOT security through obscurity...Since then, the most
efficient solution has proved to be the placing of database servers in a
demelitarized zone and protected by firewalls and possibly NIDS.What i
purpose generally is to have a seperate network for users, an other for
developers etc..So you can control resources through a central and
certain place(e.g. a linux firewall or whatever you like).
Now, if a small network is your case, you can use with ease a personal
firewall like Kerio to block access to ports 1434 and 1433 both udp and
tcp to not authorized users.
my 2 cents.
