I have a SQL Server database on Windows NT 4.0 Server.I am not able to register the database in SQL Server 7.0 Enterprise Manager using (localhost) as Server Name but it is working fine when the IP Address of the same (localhost) is given. What could be the problem ?

Thanks,
Regards,
K.Dhananjaya"

You need to use (local) not (localhost). You should be using the name of the server though instead of (local).
