Hi,
I have a Win2k Server SP4 with SQL 2000 latest SP. I am experiencing
conectivity problems with the clients.

If I use the Query analyzer tool from another SQL server and try to

connect

to the problematic server(named PADAGRAL), the Query analyzer gives me an
ODBC timeout error.
Also, in the problematic office branch PADAGRAL has 5 win2k pro clients

and

only one of them is able to connect to PADAGRAL.

but i didn't installed or changed anything!!! why was it working 2 days ago
and not now?

and BTW i "fixed" it by adding PADAGRAL IP address to the hosts file of each
server that was not able to connect to PADAGRAL

why?
