Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Description

From Microsoft : Connection attempts over the shared memory network library fail on a server where GetComputerName returns a lower or mixed case server name. When the shared memory connection attempt fails the SQL Server 2000 network library attempts to connect over an alternate protocol. GetComputerName is used to obtain the local computer name. The client network library component (DBMSLPCn.dll) converts the name to all upper case. The server network library component (SSMSLPCn.dll) leaves the name as returned. The supported fix is only intended to correct the problem described in this article and should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. This fix may receive additional testing at a later time, to further ensure product quality. Therefore, if you are not severely affected by this problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next SQL Server service pack that contains this fix.
