[dba-SQLServer] Can't Register Server

Alias is like a nickname you give to remote sql server that tells your sql 
server client how to connect to remote sql server.

You can manage aliases via the Client Network Utility:

START --> PROGRAMS --> SQL SERVER --> CLIENT NETWORK UTILITY

>From there, click on the Alias tab and select your network protocol and 
related settings.
