SBS03 ADNM Install problems

[JBDive]

ok I finally got several other issues fixed however I am stuck on getting ADNM past the point of finding the local SQL server. I have tried using the actual server name, "local"m "localhost" and even the IP and each time it responds it is unable to connect to the SQL server. I have changed the name of the database to be created plus the SA password and still the same problems.

SBS03 Pre

Ditto here... SBS 2003 Standard w/ Veritas BackupExec v10 which already uses SQL(i think the MSDE version).  At a standstill here as well...

I never understood what is the problem, exactly?
I.e. what do you mean by "finding the local SQL server"?

Would this thread help? http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=18046.0

I'd like to evaluate Avast.
I'm installing ADNM in a server where has already installed MS SQL 2000 Server.
During the installation, it show as on attached.

The name server and sa password are right.
I don't know what I've to do.

Thanks

Oh, now I understand. This is because of the trailing \avast in the SQL Server specification.

The word AVAST is considered as a name of a SQL instance. I assume your SQL instance is unnamed (it's the main, first instance) and therefore, you need to fill in the name of the server without the \avast instance name...

Thanks
I passed through  ... I stopped when I connect to AMS

I tried with dns name, ip address....
"Unable to login as Administrator or connection error"

I've red many post about this topic but I haven't found a solution yet.

In this server in installed SQL2000 server and MSDE too.
Avast use SQL2000 server.

Stop.
It's working.
I've uninstalled, I've re-installing, I've restarted a couple of time.
I don't know what happen, I don't know why and how but it's working.
I soppuse W2k3 and SQL2000 are a strange mix, sometime.


bye
