  • Server Network Utility is not present on the Start Menu for MSDE. Don't know why Microsoft didn't do that. Look for svrnetcn.exe. That's the Server Network Utility. You can configure the Network Libraries there.

    By default I believe it is in:

    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn

    for SQL Server 2000.

    Once you've configured the network libraries, you'll need to stop and restart MSDE for it to take effect. MSDE only reads those values out of the registry at start up.
