Hello,

OS : Win 2003
DB : SQL Server 2000 Enterprise with All Service Packs

I want to make sure no user connect to sql server 2000 in machine 'abcd' using 'windows authentication'. To do that i first revoked access to 'BuiltIn\Administrator' account. This way no one can access sql server using 'windows authentication'. After that i set user 'sa' password to 'cfindia'. Now sql connection is ok in machine 'abcd'. But when i connect to same sql server (using user 'sa' and password 'cfindia') through other network computers using LAN. Following error occures :-

'SQL server doesnot exists or access denied ...'

How to solve above error.
Above error also occures when i try to connect same sql server using admin tools > data sourrce (odbc)

Thanks,
manmohan

Did you enable tcp/ip or named pipes on the server? Check that in server network utility.

In 'sql server network utility' both items a enabled. As both are come under enabled protocols list (right side).

Then check sql server log to ensure sql is listening on those protocols. By the way, did you specify correct sql instance name when connect to it? Is sql oprt open on your network? Which port is used?
