I now get the following error message after copying an asp.net application to
the deployment web server.  I don't have SQLExpress or any version of SQL
2005 installed.  I found the "LocalSQLServer" connection string in the
machine.config, changed that to look at a SQL 2000 database, but the error
still comes up.

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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to
SQL Server)
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the
current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about
