We have multiple legacy DTS packages that run fine when executed from the server using SQL 2005.

When I attempt to run the same DTS packages on my local machine, they fail with:

[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).SQL]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.

I does not seem to matter weather I am using SQL or Windows Authentication, it fails locally either way.

I have found multiple websites mentioning this issue but nothing related to DTS. Many of the sites talk about enabling Named Pipes on the server. I did this but it did not help, we currently have TCP/IP enabled via SQL Server Configuration Manager.

Can anyone help with this...?
