- What version and edition of SQL Server are you using?
- What version of the Windows are you using?
It sounds like you are connecting from a client on another computer. If you
are using SQL Server 2005, use the Surface Area Configuration tool to
confirm that your SQL Server instance is listening for remote connections.
Also, a firewall could be blocking 1433. This is common with Windows XP
service pack 2.
If SQL Server is running on Vista, you have other issues.
For SQL Server 2005, there is a short tutorial that will help. See

>|||Hi,
Windows: - Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service Pack 1)
SQL:- Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.194 (Intel X86) Standard Edition
My workstation is Windows 2000. I am connecting to the server using MSTSC.
My sql server log shows the following.
"SQL server listening on Shared Memory, Named Pipes."
Actually TCP/IP/1433 is enabled in the server.
& I am not able to telnet the machine with port 1433 from the server itself.
NB: No one is using this machine now and I need to setup and install service
packs. Its a new box with installed SQL 2K and nobody know the SA password.
Thanks...Safeer

local pipe) and named pipes, but is not listening on TCP/IP. So if you want
to connect using TCP/IP and port 1433, you will have to enable TCP/IP and
restart SQL Server. You use the Server Network Utility for that.

I've already did that. Now I did it again and restarted the server. In the
Server Netwrok Utility, its showing tcp/ip. But the log is not showing
TCP/IP.
Thanks...Safeer
