Somehow, I have a feeling that named pipes might be the problem. Are you using named pipes as the network library or TCP/IP (or another network protocol)? If you're not sure, run the Client Network Utility on the SQL Server Program menu and check the default network settings. You might also need to create a server alias using TCP/IP to connect, and then specify this new alias when creating the DSN.
