yes you can connect from 32 bit client the same way with a 32 bit server.

| Check the network services on SQL Server, it's possible TCP/IP is not enabled. If it is, double check the name/address you use to connect. If you can't connect by computer name, try using IP address. In TCP/IP environments, you may have to supply a fully qualified name (e.g. SQLServerComputer.mydomain.com) |
