I've been setting up RBS on a Sharepoint 2013 dev installation, following the TechNet instructions (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee748631.aspx), and when I try to install the RBS client library on the SP server, the tables aren't being created in the content database.
I'm running SP2013 on a single server with SQL2008 R2 running on a separate server. The SQL server is housing two small unrelated databases, which I'm unsure would create an issue. FILESTREAM is enabled on the SQL server, and the BLOB store seems to have been provisioned correctly. (no errors, and the BLOB store appears in the proper directory).
When I try to install the RBS client library on on the SP server, everything seems to go normally, and rbs_install_log indicates that the installation was successful, but the tables do not show up under the content database, and there is a relevant error in the log that I'm finding: (I changed the server name for posting this)
Remote Blob Storage on the database has failed with error message:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - Connection string is not valid)
Setup will continue the installation.

Between each installation, I'm uninstalling (blob name) using the RBS_amd64.msi as per the instructions. The SQL server has Filestream, Named Pipes and SQL Server browsing enabled/running, and is fully up to date.
One item of note is that there is another SQL server in our environment that has the same instance name, but does not have file streaming enabled.
Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong or don't have set up correctly?
