New SQL Server registration from internet

Hello,
I have two SQL 2K server, both are running fine with public IP address.
i.e.
Server #1: 100.100.100.101
Server #2: 200.200.200.202
I use SQL Server #1 Client Network Utility to create an Alias i.e. SQL2.
The alias has the ip 200.200.200.202 and port 1433
Then I use SQL Server #1 Enterprise Manager to register SQL2 with SQL Server
authentication. (login name: sa and password)
Then I got the following error message:
"SQL2 - SQL Server does not exist or access denied. Connection(Connect("
Thanks
Try to see if connectivity is possible at all - ie register the IP address
in enterprise manager and see it this works on its own.

|||No,
Can not register IP address or Alias.
Thanks

|||Hello,
There is no IP address is being registered.
Yes, the port is 1433
Thanks

|||Hello,
How to check the port 1433 is open or not?
One server is behind Cisco 1720 router with direct IP address.
One server is behind DSL router, I forward port 21, 80, and 1433 to this
server.
I try to use FTP and Web, and I don't have any problem.
Thanks

|||It seems you have some sort of network problem rather than a replication
issue, as you can ping the server, but using the same IP address and port
1433 fails at the registration level, even before replication is set up.
Sorry - I doubt I can help you directly much more with this. In my case I
have a network guy that checks the firewall logs to ensure that port 1433
traffic passes from one server to the other through the firewall - maybe you
can have the same done.

Thanks a lot!!!

new installation question

I've installed MSDE on a W2000 machine and want to set up an ODBC connection to it from an XP machine using an IP address and specifying a port. How do I determine the login and password I need to use to make the connection
Thanks...Hi,
First , you have to enable TCP/IP protocol from MDE server.
From command prompt of server execute (Server Network Utility) :-
svrnetcn.exe
Here, You can enable the TCPIP protocol
By default MSDE only support Windows authentication. So try creating an ODBC
using a Domain id. Ensure that domain user has got access to SQL Server.
By default users of local administrator group will have access. Have a look
into books online for the below procedures to give preevilages:-
1. sp_grantlogin
2. sp_grantdbaccess
Have a look into below link to identify for connectivity issues:-

> Thanks...|||Jeff,
if you are using trusted security, then there won't be a requirement for a
login and password. If you are using SQL Server security, then you just need
to create a SQL Server login on MSDE and incorporate its details in the
connectionstring. I'm guessing here, but it may be that your question is
wider and you want to know generally about administering the MSDE
installation. SQL Server client tools from any other box could be used to
administer it. Just make sure that the box which is using the client tools
uses trusted security, and the windows login on this box is in the local
administrators group on the MSDE machine. To cheaply set this up, you could
use the Developer Edition to get the client tools. Some people talk about
using the Evaluation client tools although the legality of this is dubious -
you'd have to check this out with MS.
HTH,

following option for setup.exe while installing MSDE.
Setup.exe SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD=<password>
