Re: SQL 2000, Named Pipes and Windows 2003 Standard

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Just to clarify. I can access net use \\sqlserver\IPC$ so windows
authentication doesn't seem to be the issue. I went through the
makepipe/readpipe and that all works fine. Also, everytime i try to connect
to the SQL using named pipes i get a security audit log. Although it
doesn't say much.

We had a problem in the past where changing from TCP/IP to Named Pipes
fixed a SQL Connection timeout that happened every so often. Well, now we
seperated the Web server and SQL Server onto our new Dell Blade systems
which are pretty fast (faster than what it used to be on). However, I
cannot get named pipes to work. It fails to connect but TCP/IP works
fine. We are using TCP/IP now, but I am getting a few timeouts every day
just like before (just not as many). So, I disabled the firewall on both
machines for the private network it uses to connect. Windows 2003 is
fully updated and SQL2000 is updated to SP4. I cannot figure out why
Named Pipes will not work. I even tried from an XPSP2 laptop I brought it
in and it won't connect using named pipes either. Is there any kind of
patch, dll or something I need to do to allow named pipes to work over a
small LAN? The servers are connected using a direct Gigabit connection
isolated to only the two servers on the same network with all firewalls
disabled.
