sql server msde: Hi, I'm about going to be using a database on the MSDE installed with
Windows SBS 2003. The problem is that in the service manager there are no
servers or services listed. Do I have to reinstall? Thanks.

Known issue, it doesn't matter. SQL/MSDE is actually running, and if you
want, you can delete the link to the SQL Manager in Start Menu -> All
Programs -> Startup, if you don't want to see the icon"

hi Ben,
[quoted text, click to view]

MSDE installs by default disabling network protocols and remote connections,
and this can prevent instances to be enlisted in the service manager combo,
