General Network Error

Hello,
A User currently having a problem with an Access 2000 application that uses
Linked tables to connect to an SQL 2005 database. The user receives the
following message:
Connection failed:
SQLState: ‘01000’
SQL Server Error: 11004
[Microsoft ][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]
ConnectionOpen(gethostbyname()()).
Connection failed:
SQLState: ‘08001’
SQL Server Error: 11
[Microsoft ][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets] General net
work error.
Check your network documentation.
The application was working for the user but it stopped working after a help
desk person had done some things to her machine to get another application
working. Anybody have an idea on what may have changed to cause this to
happen?
The Users workstation is Windows 2000 SP4. I can also ping and telnet to the
SQL server from that machine.It can be caused by different things but I've seen MDAC
versions be the cause of such problems before. Make sure the
PC has the latest MDAC version. You can download MDAC
versions and also download component checker to check the
MDAC version from:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/data/ref/mdac/downloads/
You would also want to check the event logs on the PC for
any network related issues.
