I am having a problem connecting with SQL server management . I get the error I have posted at the end of the message. However, I can successfully connect with my application. I use the same connection attributes with no success. Same login, same protocol, from the same machine.
Any Ideas?
Thanks!

TITLE: Connect to Server
Cannot connect to DEEPSHEEP\SQLEXPRESS.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)

Can you connect to the instance locally by using ".\SQLEXPRESS" instead of "DEEPSHEEP\SQLEXPRESS"?
Do you have SP1 installed with the SSMS Express Edition management tools?
