Hello,

We have a webserver and need to make an alias for a sql server using 'client
network tools' so it uses tcp/ip over named pipes.

Is the SQL Server CD the only place to install this from ?
or Will MDAC have this ?

Thanks

Hi,

Install SQL Server client using setup program. For SQL Server 2000 you have
client network utility and for SQL 2005 you could use
SQL Configuration manager to configure network protocols.

Thanks
