Problem running WSUS maintenance script

$

Ok, WSUS is running on Windows server 2008 r2 without problems. Server has SQL Server 2008 r2 running as well. With Windows 10 coming soon, it's time to prepare WSUS to deal with it. So Windows 10 categories are checked in the WSUS console. Now it seems WSUS will refer to Windows 10 as Windows Vista. And we don't want that, so I tried to fix this according to page http://titlerequired.com/2015/07/22/windows-10-on-wsus-shows-as-windows-vista/

I composed the SQL script, but it won't run. The command to run the script looks like this: sqlcmd -I -i WsusDBMaintenance.sql -S \\.\pipe\MSSQL$MICROSOFT##SSEE\sql\query

WsusDBMaintenance.sql being the script responsible for, among maintenance, renaming Windows 10 to, well, Windows 10.

Thing is, there's no database engine called MICROSOFT##SSEE on the box. If I check SQL Server Management Studio, there's a database engine called <servername> holding SUSDB. But specifying <servername> instead of MICROSOFT##SSEEresults in the same error message "Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server". Tried fiddling the name like removing the MSSQL$ part, specifying SUSDB etc. but it won't budge.

It's probably something I overlook, so how can I get that script running?
