Hi,

When we try to connect to a remote database server or name of the server is a bit long , text gets cut because of additional information of the server. Please find attached patch to fix it..

Regards,

Well, this fixes the issue for this example. But I guess that, if I put
a text a little longer than yours, it'll screw up again, right?

Right - this allows a 2 line description to display properly. Any
longer than that and you'll still have issues - but that doesn't seem
like it's worth spending too much effort on as that's likely to be a
rare (and slightly unusable case). Overflowing to a second line is
pretty easy to do, even with a reasonable length description.

Yes, it will if size of the name field is unusually long. But in case of remote  machine's information even moderate size was creating issues.
