SQL Server 2000 Developer edition client server configuration error

  • On my local I have :

    Windows XP SP2, SQL server 2000 Developers edition.

    SQL Server installation completed successfully, I can operate locally, but it is not allowing remote connections. The error message that they get is

    "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SQL Server does not exist or access denied"

    I have configured the Client network utility with TCP/IP (port 1433)and named pipes(sql\query).

    All the services pertaining to SQL server are started. Below is the log when server starts:

    Please help me out of this.

  • After much struggle, I have found out the only thing missing, to configure the client server setup on my local, was SP4.

    I installed and the log now shows

    "2010-04-13 13:49:58.09 server SQL server listening on TCP, Shared Memory, Named Pipes."

    **TCP was missing earlier

    It is now working fine.

    Just shoot me!!!!

  • This issue is resoleved ..Thanks for nothing
