How to connect to a dedicated m/c

Hi,
Recently i installed SQL server 2000(EE)on my remote dedicated server( win
2003). I haven't installed ant Service packs. Now the problem is i am not
able to connect to the SQL server either thru Query Analyzer or thru the
application. I have disabled the firewall, still no use. Can anyone help
me.But thru remote desktop, i was able to connect to the server m/c by
putting the ip address .
regards laraFirst thing to do is install SP3. SQL2000 RTM isn't supported on
Windows 2003.
