New SQL Server registartion problem

Hi everybody,
I have 2 systems with operating system 2003 on both of them.
I have installed the SQL Server 2000 on both machines with instance name
as SQLServer1 and SQLServer2.
I have created a SQL Server group on one machine on which SQLServer1
instance is created.Now on this machine i want to register SQLServer2
through new SQL Server registration wizard (SQLServer2 is instance
created on anather machine and both machines are in same domain). But at
the end of the wizard i am getting error as,
"SQL Server registrtion failed because of the connection failure
displayed as below. Do you wish to register any way?".
"SQL Server does not exists or access denied".
So please let me know how to overcome this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Regards
Vishal

Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!The message indicates that the SQL Server service is either not running or
you are not able to connect to the SQL Server machine. Are you able to ping
the SQL Server machine from the client machine? Some information on
troubleshooting connectivity issues at:

Is .NET important for a database professional?
