New IBM Laptop running SQL server cannot connect to another sql server on network

I am trying to connect a new LBM Laptop to an SQL server on the
network
and I get "test connection failed because of an error in initializing
provider, [dbnetlib][connectionopren(connect()),] SQL server does not
exist or access denied. The laptom has sql server running on it
locally and I am trying to connect to an SQL server on the network.
Thanks

Hi

You should make sure that SQL Server is at Service Pack 3a on both machines
and check the MDAC installation on the laptop with the MDAC component
checker (see microsoft download centre)?

If you can connect to the network SQL Server from other machines, then check
the network settings on the laptop.
