In addition, SQL 2005 has "remote access" turned off by default. Go into Configuration Manager and have a look there. My guess is that this is your problem.

Hi John:

1. Would you have an IIS server running on both computers?
2. Are both MS SQLs using different ports (1433 default)?
3. The 'guest' account is turned off by default on new installs; would this
be the case on the new computer?
4. Do you have a personal firewall setup on either/both computers that may
be blocking the MS SQL ports?

I have just finished rebuilding a machine (new motherboard) and need to
transfer a large SQL Server database to that new server.  The two servers
can see each other (shared folders), but ...

I cannot register the other SQL Servers, getting an error "Login failed for
'MachineName\Guest'.  I get this error on either machine when trying to
register the SQL Server on the other machine.  My login user / password is
the same on both machines.  Both databases were installed using "Windows
Authentication" rather than "SQL Server Authentication".

Any ideas?
