That is surprising. Sometimes it says that when it cant connect at all. Can you try connecting with Connect-DbaInstance or Get-DbaDatabase? Including Verbose. |

Ah, maybe the issue is this is not a SQL server? It's a PowerBI FE server ????? |

OHHH it;s connecting using named pipes and the named pipe is the "file" that cannot be found! No, unfortunately, it only works for SQL Servers -- using WinRM would make it not work easily or by default on Linux. |
