I have a SQL2000 instance that when I attempt to connect to it by
default\NamedInstance it connects me to the default instance on that server
instead. If I connect with (local)\NamedInstance it connects me to the named
instance.
In addition when I attempt to start the agent for the named instance I get
the below:
SQLServerAgent cannot start because the instance of the server (MSSQLSERVER)
is not the expected instance
thanks for your your help

A default instance for sql2000 uses the reserved name MSSQLSERVER;
If you stated MSSQLSERVER for your named instance, you may be in troubles !
Be specific and mention the names you've used.
