SYMPTOMS
========
After you install SQL server and then run Control Panel to install TCP/IP,
Connectivity Utilities is unavailable (grayed out), even though TCP/IP is not
installed.
CAUSE
=====
When you install SQL Server and choose to include the TCP/IP connectivity on a
computer running Windows NT without TCP/IP installed, a message is displayed
that asks you if you want to proceed. If you select Yes, false TCP/IP and
Parameter keys are created in the following registry key under the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE subtree:
\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\SERVICES
When you attempt to install TCP/IP, Windows NT finds the registry entries, and
believes that TCP/IP is already installed, and installs utilities, but not the
protocol.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this problem, delete the registry keys created by SQL Server,
install TCP/IP, and then reinstall SQL Server.
