can see sql2k sp3, but cannot connect?

With Enterprise manager, I can see a remote sql 2000 sp3 instance. I can al
so
see that port 1433 is open.
But, when I try to connect to it, I get the connection could not be
estiablished.
sql server does not exist or access denied.
I have pretty much all the port except for 1433 tcp and udp blocked.
How can I troubleshoot getting this connected. It is located on my local
network - so it is not a connection problem.

Thanks in advance, Les CaudleI think it was a name resolution problem, with so few ports open.
When I created a registration by ip address rather than name, it connected
immediately.
Confusing that the name showed up in Enterprise Manager. Would be nice if i
t
would automatically try to use just the ip (which it must know, as it can se
e
it).
