>I recently installed SQL Server 6.5 on my NT Workstation machine at home. My machine is called WoodWorm and I was expecting to be able to register a server called WoodWorm. Does anyone know how to reference the server on a local machine?

You should be able to reference is as WoodWorm. If that doesn't work try as (local). BTW, do you have a network adapter installed in that computer?
