how to get SQL SERVER 2005 NETWORK CONFIGURATION...

hI ALL,
i wrote my problem before also...n it was
I have installed SQL SERVER 2005 CTP,Version 9.00.1314 but the problem is...as soon as i m trying to connect..i gave the local server name as SHUCHI during the installation and now i m trying to connect to it... then it gives me error as :
cannot connect to SHUCHI
additional information: An error has occured 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 connection to SQL Server)(Microsoft SQL Server,Error:2)

n now i think i have another problem...this problem is still there and no one could tell me the right solution :(( ....n now when i saw the sql configuration tool i found that in the SQL SERVER 2005 NETWORK CONFIGURATION there are NO PROTOCOLS at all...in short i think they r not installed at all...i tried to install the SQL SERVER thrice but the problem is stil the same....can someone tell me...if i can just install these protocols only from somewhere>?

please try to HELP MEEEEE.....
thnks,
shuch.Are you inside SAC (Surace Area Configuration)?
You need to enable the protocols.
After that, you need to enable remote connections.

What OS are you using?
How are you logged into your machine?
Can you verify that you're in the Administrator's group?
Can you verify that you logged into the machine with an account that belongs in the Administrator's group?
Did you try logging into your machine as Administrator?
