Remote Connections Using SQL Server 2005 Developers Enterprise Edition

I have a problem. I am using the developers version of SQL Server Enterprise edition.


I am trying to run a command in MS command prompt:

Aspnet_regsql -E -S localhost -ssadd -sstype p

After I execute this command, I receive a Name Pipe
error that under the default settings, SQL Server
doesn't allow remote connections. I took some steps
to try to resolve the problem:

1) I googled the interrnet to see if there was any one
else who ran into the same problem and if there was a
quick resolution.


2) I check SQL Server Books on line about SQL server
configuration manager and how to enable remote
connections using Name Pipes and TCP/IP.


3) I used C:WINDOWSsystem32cliconfg.exe to enable
Name Pipes and TCPIP to be enable on the client.


4) I enabled SQl Server Browser to help me with my
problem


5) I stopped the Database engine, enable local and
remote connections using Name pipes and TCP/IP,then I
restarted the database engine along with SQl server
Agent.

6) I did check SQl Server error logs to see what port
it was listening on , but I thought that SQl Server
was suppose to listen on port 1433 by default, and
Name pipes /SQL/query.

7)I have check the error logs to see what port that SQL Server was listening to
and trying to use the port number in the client config utility. I am still getting the same error.

8) I tried to remove name pipes in the SQL Server Surface Manager and allow local and remote connections using only TCP/IP. I still get the same error. I did stop and restarted the Database Engine.

What steps have I not taken , and what should I do to correct this problem?
