We had the same problem - win 3.1 worked fine but windows for work
groups failed.  The problem is that wfwg doesn't support dosnp!  In
order to communicate you will have to run the Network Integration Kit
(that comes with SQL Server) on the server and converts named pipes
calls to SPX.  On the client you need to run the appropriate .dll which
is set using the Client Configuration Tool in the client setup disk.

I can't remember the exact files names now.

For more information you could try the microsoft knowledge base on
http://www.microsoft.com or gopher://gopher.microsoft.com.

PS - In the end having set this up we never found the Network
Integration Kit ot be as robust as Named Pipes (dispite microsofts
claims) and went replaces wfwg by win 3.1.


Hope this helps
