SQL 2005 Question

[Jason_Reynolds_]

A SQL 2005 Server was recently added to my network. I have the Remote Agent for SQL 2000. Is there an upgrade to get the Agent for SQL 2005? I am unable to connect to my SQL 2005 database.

The reason I am bringing it up was that when I installed the SQL agent it gave me the SQL Agents for 7 and 2000 with the single serial key that I entered. This would lead me to believe that 2005 should be covered by my existing license.

I added the Hotfix but it still won't connect. The exact error message I get says:

An error was encountered while attempting to browse the contents of SQL2L. A network connection to the server could not be established.

I am able to back up the drives and the Shadow Copy Components. The only problem is the SQL server. Any suggestions?

Hi,

Did you reinstall the Remote Agent on the SQL Server after installing the hotfix?

Is SQL in a cluster?

Just a quick question. I am able to backup SQL 2005 with my SQL2000 license, but do I need to get a SQL2005 license or can I just use my current license ?
