Can anyone help?

SQL 2005 has been installed on Server A, when trying to add a second node,
using these instructions
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191545.aspx no error messages are
given, but the node is not added.

The summary.txt is as follows

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 9.00.1399.06
==============================
OS Version : Microsoft Windows Server 2003 family, Enterprise Edition
Service Pack 1 (Build 3790)
Time : Wed Sep 13 15:07:30 2006
SQL Server Setup was interrupted. For more information, review the Setup
log file in %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup
Bootstrap\LOG\Summary.txt.
Time : Wed Sep 13 15:09:42 2006

but nothing is added. in the Core(Local).log there are errors saying
\\ServerB is not accessible. I have checked ServerB and can connect using
fqdn and hostname all admin shares are enabled, I have disable netbios on the
crossover cable but it has had not effect

Please does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance
