Are you actually saying that you want four machines on your network to connect to your local instance of SQL Server? Are you saying that you're not allowed to setup a firewall exception or you tried but were unable? If you were unable, what did you try? It's not very hard to find instructions on how to do it:

windows firewall sql server - Google Search

Hi I'm already done for the firewall but i have a problem when i debug my program cannot log my username. then when i start the SQL Service there's an error.

"The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion.
Consult the event log or other applicable error logs for details."I really don't what kind of error that.

Did you consult the event log as suggested? You use the Windows Event Viewer for that, which you'll find under Control Panel -> Administrative Tools.
