Connecting to MSDE from client

We are using MSDE as a cheap datastore in our client/server app. MSDE is installed only on the server and both the server and the clients connect to it from their machines.

When we deploy on Windows XP, we see that our code running on the server can access MSDE, but our code running on a client machine cannot connect to MSDE.

The clients are able to connect on Windows 2000 ... can anyone help me understand this ?

Thanks in advance,

ethan

MSDE only allow local access.
