Note: MSDE support from the SQL team will be expiring in the near future,
you are encouraged to move on to SQL Express 2005.

Did you use the 'Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Edition' or 'SQL Express
2005' macro component in the Feature Pack 2007 tech preview we recently
uploaded? This should include all the dependencies you
need to install MSDE. If you haven't signed up to get the build,
here's the details:

thanks, i'm still using SQL SERVER 2000 on the devellopement side and msde
200A file install version 2.4.1, wich is not the latest one i guess.

i have to find why the msde istalled is not sens from outside on the network
like the pc itself.

so finally i found that the firewall wasn't allowing me to have access to it,
by default all ports are closed.
so to unlock it : in command prompt
netsh firewall set allowedprogram "c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL\Binn\sqlservr.exe" SQL ENABLE

and it's done
