MSDE 2000 and enterprise (enterprize) manager remotely

Hey all.
Can you use enterprise manager to connect to an MSDE 2000 version of
SQL Server across the internet? Ignoring firewalls (server was placed
outside firewall to see if thats where the connection problem was)
We get the 'SQL Server does not exist or access denied
ConnectionOpen(Connect())' error when trying to connect to a clients
database on their server over the internet. However, everything looks
ok and I can vpn into their machine and connect to the server using
enterprise manager on a terminal service session on their servers.
This in itself is a pain and we would rather have their server
registered in our enterprise manager.
Does the same answer apply if the server was an installation of SQL
Server standard edition?Licensing questions aside:
Yes. Note that MSDE doesn't by default listen to any netlibs. If you can
connect to the same MSDE after VPN, then this shouldn't be an issue. I
suggest you, on the client, make sure that TCP IP is at the top of the list
in Client Network Utility. Also try connecting using IP address. And as for
port numbers,
The IP netlib uses 1433 for a default instance.
The IP netlib uses 1434 for the port resolution query and whatever the
instance picked at the first startup for the actual data traffic.

tryng to connect from another machine across the internet, with little
success, thats why I asked.
Do you have any other ideas why we wouldnt be able to register their
server in enterprise manager?
I can only register it in enterprise manager on the terminal server box,
not on my local ent manager.

MSDE doesn't listen to any netlibs by default. Apart from that and the
things I mentioned in my first post, I don't know what it might be.
Firewalls is the most common reason for this.

services. BUT, When I log on terminal services and have a look at the
properties of the server (terminal services enterprise manager) it says
tcpip is enabled. Does this mean that this library is available and
SHOULD work across the internet?

MSDE & WMSDE

Hi all,
i'm very new on MSSQL, recently i need to setup Windows
SharePoint Services and came across about the MSDE.
Appreciate if someone can answer my question below.
1) What is the different between MSDE & WMSDE ?
2) Possible description on the following executable
files? Or website.
bcp.exe, cnfgsvr.exe, dcomscm.exe, osql.exe,
sqlmaint.exe, sqlmangr.exe, scm.exe, sqladhlp.exe, and
svrnetcn.exe
3) What is storage limit? MSDE have limitation on 2Gb of
storage limit, how about WMSDE?1) What is the different between MSDE & WMSDE ?
WMSDE is a special MSDE on steroids without the 5 user limit and
without the 2GB limit
but you can't search in sharepoint sites
Re 2gb limit:
for most installations you shouldn't wory about this ceiling
you should worry about emphasizing to users that Sharepoint sites are
not for dumping anything like they did with their network shares
for others i recommend msd2d.com
it is a great place for the beautiful Sharepoint technlogies
hope this answered some of your questions
PS: i found a title from Elsevier very helpful..check amazon
the authors are from HP
