connection failed when using IP address

I am trying to connect to MSDE 2000a server over the internet. I have check
and open the ports on my router pointing it to my server (1433 & 1434). But
I am still not able to connect. (Check log and port is 1433)
Does anyone know what I can try or do to resolve this problem (I have all th
e latest patches)?Hi,
Execute "srvnetcn.exe" from command prompt from the server running MSDE. In
the display scrren,
verify that tcp/ip and named pipes are enabled for the MSDE instance. If
not, enable them and then stop and
start MSDE service and try again.
Thanks
Hari
