Problem making DSN with SQL server from other machine.

I faced this problem when I was trying to connect to SQL server 2005 from another machine.

The error message said, that SQL server does not exist or access denied.

Solution :

1. Start SQL Server Configuration Manager
2. Expand SQL Server network configuration
3. Select Protocols for MSSQLSERVER
4. Double click TCP/IP in the right pane.
5. Change enabled to true
6. Click IP Addresses Tab and change the IP address to the IP address of the client.

Start SQL Server Area Configuration
Select Surface area configuration for services and connections.
Go to Database Engine -> Remote Connections and verify that remote connections are enabled. (The correct radio button is selected)

Can wait be resume without Notify??

A thread can also wake up without being notified, interrupted, or timing out, a so-called spurious wakeup. While this will rarely occur in practice, applications must guard against it by testing for the condition that should have caused the thread to be awakened, and continuing to wait if the condition is not satisfied. In other words, waits should always occur in loops, like this one:
synchronized (obj) {

while (someCondition()==false)

obj.wait(timeout);

... // Perform action appropriate to condition

}
