Help required Urgently: Intermittent connection failures Nags

sql server connect: I am trying to connect to SQL Server from another box and I keep getting
this error intermittently.

DB-Library: Unable to connect: SQL Server is unavailable or does not exist.
Unable to connect: SQL Server does not exist or network access denied.
Net-Library error 10060: Connection (Connect()).

What could be the issues ?

Hi,

This can be because of network issues. Can you execute a PING <Ipaddress>
command and
confirm that network is stable.

Yes, we already tested it and the network is stable.

Are these servers in the same subnet? Are they dual
homed? Perhaps the serving box is too busy? Perhaps a
bad patch cable? Are any other applications on this
server having problems connecting out?

10060 = Connection Timeout.
Verify that the server doesn't have a personal firewall that is blocking
the client.
Make network traces on both the client and server and verify that the tcp 3
way handshake is completing.
