The SQL Server Express 2005 with SP2 was installed on Windows XP x64 +SP2,
the TCP/IP, Named Pipes and SQL browser services were enabled, and port 1433
was activated also. On the client computer there was no browser service
installed.

I can connect to the Express on the same computer with ADO or Native
Client, but when connected from remote computer, it ran into the error which
said 'SQL Network Interfaces:Error Locating Server/Instance Specified'. It
seemed the client could not find the instance of the SQL Express. I googled
on the net and followed those instructions to install connection components
of native client, but this did not work.

Are there any other suggestions from you?

Best regards,

Jak

Enable SQL Server Browser service on the server.

Yes, I have enabled all the services related to SQL Server already, but this
might not help.
