So now you are using TCP/IP according to the error message. So you are sure that MSSQLSERVER and MSSQL$InstanceName are started? And you are sure that you are using the correct ServerName\InstanceName names? Can you poing ServerName from that box? If not, use the IP address in the alias instead of the server name.

Ah, Win2k3. I wonder if port 1434 is blocked by default. I haven't installed multiple instances on Win2k3 yet. You might need to google this and check the MS knowledge base:

Consider using a different port other than 1434. You'll need to change the port number in Server Network Utility, restart the MSSQL$InstanceName service, and modify your alias in Client Network Utility for this new port.

I think it has to do with the locked down features of Windows 2003.

You need to create an alias to it using Client Network Utility.

Yes!! I selected TCP/IP, Servername, and checked default port in client network utility. Alias name i gave was Servername\Instance. I was trying to connect from my client machine to the server and i get this error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL SErver Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]SQL Server does not exist or access denied (08001,17)

You can not use the default port as that isn't what you selected for this server. Use the port that you selected last Friday.

All I can say is make sure that the port is the same in Server Network Utility on the database server and Client Network Utility on the client machine.
On the client machine, you could try connecting to Query Analyzer using ServerName,PortNumber. If that works, then the problem is with your alias.

Tara, Now i have repeated problem. I had to restart the server which has two instances. After rebooting i could only see one instance in EManager and i could able to connect to 2 instances through Query Analyzer. I tried every thing. Error: SQL Server does not exist or access denied. I am having same error from client machines also.

Sounds like your port was changed on the database server. Open up Server Network Utility to view the port for that instance.
Is the MSSQL$InstanceName service started on the database server? Is it set to automatic? If not, that's your problem.
