sql server connect:
Just a guess but if your clients are addressing the server by name instead
of by IP address, it may just be that the DNS change hasn't propagated yet.
You could tell by using the IP address in the connection string to see if
that works.

IP address change breaks remote SQL EM in SqlExpress Harry

I am using sqlExpress as backend for iis and had to make an ip change.
Suddenly I cannot remotely connect to SQL using the CTP. I chaged the ip
address back to the original and still cannot connect. The box is wide open,
no firewall and all surface connections are active. Still cannot connect to
the server. iis is working, and if I rdp into the site, ctp works fine.
Event logs say nothing.
Suggestions would be appreciated.
Harry
