If SQL Server 6.5 is set to use Windows only authentication, this will not
work. With SQL Server 6.5 NT authentication only works with named pipes.

Also by default SQL Server 6.5 does not enable TCP/IP. It has to be done
after setup. So use SQL Server setup to see if tcp/ip is enabled. Then set
SQL Server to use mixed security and then configure your DSN to use SQL
authentication. This is just a test to see if you can connect. With this
configuration the alias that Hari suggests should work.

What error are you getting when you try to connect?
