I've tried to run mssql express like this and that connection faile until
I entered the correct "path" (I'm really unsure here, what to call it) to
the server. I also never got use for the port, when I did this:

$config['Database']['server'] = 'HOST\SQLEXPRESS';

After this, the connection worked all fine, except for the user-rights I
had to fix first.
