sql server primary runs on tcpip, and you can configure it
to listen to multiple protocols at the same time. Client
specifies what protocol to use when initiating connection.
you should use client network utility to configure tcpip
as the first network protocol to be used to establish
connection to sql server. if you still have problems then
define an alias.
