Connecting to remote named instance

Hi,
I need some help connecting to a remote named instance of SQL Server 2000
Lets say the server has fqdn: "sqlsrv1.dk.mydomain.com" and is installed as
a named instance with name: "COPENHAGEN"
Trying to connect from another location using
"sqlsrv1.dk.mydomain.com\COPENHAGEN" will fail, but connecting from the
location in question using "sqlsrv1\COPENHAGEN" will succceed.
How do I do this ?
In advance, thanks...
Soren
Soren,
If the servers are on the same domain, you should be able to connect to the
remote server using
sqlsrv1\COPENHAGEN

Ping sqlsrv1.dk.mydomain.com\COPENHAGEN
and
Ping sqlsrv1
is it returning the same ip address.
And also check your MDAC version.
