I'm running SQL Server 2000 on 3 node cluster. If a SQL Instance runs on node 2, I'm able to connect to that instance from SQL Client on my desktop without specifying the port number. But when it runs on node 1, I have to specify the port number to connect to instance.
can anyone please throw some light on this..
Thanks in advance.

Is browser service running on that node? If not, then enable it and start it.

This is sqlserver 2000 not 2005.

Is it listening on static port or dynamic one? Also, check whether aliases have been configured on second node or not.

Check the firewall settings on the problem node, if you have to specify the port to be able to connect then this is likely your problem.
