cant register to server from client

When I register to SQL server 2000 on another machine, I
get message " SQL server doesn't exist or access is
denied. Connection open". The pinging of the two machines
is OK. And I checked the protocols of both machines were
the same. Tell me how to rectify this problem. ThanksAre you trying to register by IP or by Name? There is an entry for the
server in the Client Configuration Utility? There is an entry for the server
in the DNS or in your hosts file?

|||You need to retrieve the actual OS error to troubleshoot this problem.
Reply with the OS error returned while connecting using an ODBC test DSN.
Or test using ISQL.exe from a command prompt.
Example:
ISQL -Stcp:ServerNameHere -Usqluseridhere -Ppasswordhere -Q"select
@.@.version"
or
ISQL -Stcp:ServerNameHere -E -Q"select @.@.version"
Search the kb for the OS error returned.
Example:
10060 == Connection Timeout
10061 == Connection Refused. The server is not listening on TCP. This
could be caused if we fail to bind to the port.
