Strange Sql Server behavior

Has anybody noticed that sometimes if you change the server IP, or hibernate
and restart the machine containing the server, that you are able to ping the
sql server computer from your handheld, but applications cannot find the
database unless you stop and start the sql server using the sql server
service manager. Any fixes for this, my most common tech support answer
seems to be "stop and restart the sql server". It doesn't seem to make
sense since I can ping the machine but cannot find the server. My
connection string isn't in IP address format, I use the computer
name/database- but this shouldn't matter I think.

Thanks,
Joe
 
Joe, what version of SQL Server is this?
What OS are you running on?

What happens if you attempt to connect to the server via the IP address
using TCPIP_sockets as your communication protocol?

You might want to post this question to microsoft.public.sqlserver.connect.

I'm using the latest version of MSDE and Windows XP. I haven't tried
specifying the IP Address yet because sometimes this computer is on a router
so specifying the servername is easier for setting them up with IP adresses.
And this only seems to happen on handhelds, not so much other computers
connecting to it.

Thanks,
Joe

Not really, I just have to use a static IP address and things work pretty
well. But from time to time I still have some problems.
