do you mean that only local connections are available? (local connection to
the machine hosting MSDE, while connections coming from the lan are
refused?) if this is the case, MSDE installs by default disabling remote
connections and you have to enable them at install time, providing the
DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 additional parameter or, later at run time, via
Server Network Protocols utility...

I'm having the same problem remotely connecting to a MSDE sql server.
Is windows only authentication should be changed to sql server
authentication to connect remotely?
