Is the SQL Server configured to allow connections via TCP/IP, as opposed to Named Pipes, which may use NetBIOS over TCP/IP? What port is the SQL Server configured to listen on? The default is 1433. Did you configure the ODBC client to use TCP/IP? You can do that within the ODBC Control Panel. Is traffic to port 1433 allowed through the firewall to the database server?
