Cannot connect remotely but TCP/IP is enabled

sql server msde:
I have installed MSDEa on a remote Windows 2003 Web Edition server according
to the following:

setup.exe SAPWD=******* DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 SECURITYMODE=SQL

I connect to this server using remote desktop and I can use osql to login.
I cannot get to it using Query Analyzer or osql from my development machine.
I am using the IP address as the Server name (which has worked for me in the
past). Response I get is:

[DBNETLIB]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
[DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).

I have used svrnetcn.exe to verify that both Named Pipes and TCP/IP are
enabled protocols. TPC/IP is using port 1433 and the Hide Server option is
NOT checked.

I can ftp and ping the machine so at least some packets are getting through.
I don't know enough about IPSec on Win2003, but I don't see anything
obviously blocking port 1433. I am able to connect to other remote SQL
servers so our office firewall does not seem to be the problem.

Any clues why I cannot connect remotely?

Thanks,

Brent

Are you using sa/password or windows auth?

Are you using a named instance?

Aaron,

I'm using Mixed Mode security which works when I use Remote Desktop to run
osql locally (osql -Usa -P******)
I'm using the default instance.
