I'd verify that all the connection data there is correct, but I'd also try creating a new datasource that point to the same place through CF -- that way you know whether it's this particular entry or *all* connections to SQL 2000. I'm guessing it's all connections to SQL2000. You'd get the same sort of message if you simply erased info out of that xml config file. Having trouble guessing how an upgrade could have done that so you're probably dealing with something more annoying. Could you have done something like change the default connection method in sql server (e.g. from named pipes to TCP or vice-versa)? I've been running SQL2000 sp2 w/ the .669 cumulative patch/hotfix and can connect using CFMX just fine, but I had patched the SQL servers before the CFMX even rolled out. I can't remember precisely what the upgrade from SQL2k (or sp1) to sp2 did. But if it's only one web server, the the win server patch is where you need to look. bleah. You might try changing over to TCP connections as a test (assuming you're using named pipes) or vice-versa to verify whether the problem is in the connection method itself or something more subtle.
