A quick note on IP addresses. SQL Server can act a little funny when periods are in the server name. Add an entry to your Hosts file (if you don't know what the Hosts file is, search your boot drive for Hosts.sam, rename it Hosts with no extension, and then open it in Notepad for instructions) giving the IP address a name and then use that name to register your servers. This will avoid the problems.

"It is an important and popular fact that things are not always what they seem. For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much -- the wheel, New York, wars and so on -- whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man -- for precisely the same reasons." - Douglas Adams
