I've installed MSDE on an XP Professional server - to be used by the public
as part of a forum I'm building.
I can connect locally but fails when I connect locally using the option:
Network Library=dbmssocn
Please help me out here, I'm not a network/XP person and I'd like to get it
so that anyone can connect for testing and discussion purposes.
(I did manage to at least figure out how to enable connections to the web
server on the same machine where the forum is hosted but can't find any
switches for SQLServer..')

1. Open up the Client Network Utility, located at:
c:\Windows\system32\cliconfg.exe
2. Click n the Alias Tab, make sure you add an Alias to access your MSDE
from either TCP/IP or Named Pipes.
We also use the same network library, and we have had to add the Name Pipes
Alias. This name can be any name you choose.
Peace in Christ
