I am connecting my report to Sql Server 2008 database through OLE DB connection. And providing TCP IP as "Server" but unfortunately its not working BUT when i provide server name instead of IP address no such problem occur and it works fine.

With Sql Server 2005 , no such problem exists.

Whats missing (Sql Server 2008) DB server side ? Any configuration required ?

Using "SQL Server Configuration manager" on the SQL Server Box, please can you check the protocols for your instance, under the header "SQL Server Network Configuration". Specially check whether TCP/IP is enabled.

Other things which you might need to check is whether the SQL instance is running on a static port other than the default port, if yes, you will need to provide the port number along with the TCP/IP address.
