sql server clustering : SQL Server Cluster move

Hi All,

I built a SQL Cluster in a dev area next to my cube. Had two web
servers pointing at it and everything was working perfectly. I picked
up all 4 of my machines and moved them to my colo. This ment I had to
change all the IP addresses associated with the machines, this all
seemed to go very smoothly. I got the cluster backup with all it's new
IP's and all my web servers came up too. I could connect to my database
from both of my cluster machines, however I could NOT connect from
anywhere else. Not from my web servers and not from my desck top
machine.

Environment running on:
Windows 2003 with all the latest SP's.
SQL Server 2000 with SP3
Dual Processors
4 Gig ram
1/2 Terrabyte of disk.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

CJ

Your symptoms indicate that you can connect via Named Pipes but not via IP
address. You can confirm this by attempting to connect locally via IP
address, not virtual server name. The following article outlines steps to
correct this problem.
