I have a problem with sql server 2005 about connecting to by a remote pc, I use adp db explorer to test the connection and I get an error "dbnetlib connection open, provider does't exists or not accesible".

I have used both local and remote connection enabled and both tcp/ip and named pipes,
also in protocols I have enabled in tco/ip ip's 127.0.0.1 and 192.168.x.x which second ip I have made port forward in the server's router, used static port 1433 and disabled both routers and windows firewall (winxp pro).
When I netstat -an I get the port 1433 listening but bot ip's are 0.0.0.0
