Hi,
I'm trying to install a SQL Server 2000 Virtual Server on a Windows
2003-Based Cluster Fails.
Finally, I follow the step shown at the article 815431 where you can find
how to install a named instance of SQL2k in a W2k3 cluster. But it's
imposible to use the same virtual server name and instance name that you
used to configure the pipe, cause of the "\".
How could I install it?
Thanks.

If I am understanding you, the "\" you are referring to is the "\" between
the virtual server name and the instance name. This should not cause a
problem.

The pipe should look like this
\\.\pipe\$$\VIRTUALSERVERNAME\MSSQL$INSTANCE1\sql\query

ver.
Anybody could help me, please?
Thanks.
