I have a SQL7.0 server running SP3, and all of a sudden I can't connect to the server. When in Enterprise manager I try to connect to the server, I get the following Message.

A connection could not be established to XXX(servername) - Invalid connection.
Connection Transact(TransactNamedPipe())...
Please verify SQL server is runing and check your SQL Server registration properties (by right-clicking on the XXX node) and try again.

What I need to know is I can't even get into the properties of this server through Enterprise Manager so how can I check. The other thing I see in the event viewer is that I see event ID:17055 error: Description: 17302: The maximum limit for connections has been reached.


Please help me ASAP with any suggestions.

Thanks,

Jay
