How to enable TCP/IP connectons to SqlServer

How to enable remote connections on TCP/IP?

I have just installed for first time SqlServer 2000,
and cannot connect from other host via ODBC.
I give hostname or address but it does not connect.
I checked on my firewall that there is no listenning socket
on port 1433 nor 1440 on sqlserver host.

I can only connect using "(local)" server in ODBC on sqlserver host.

start->programs->Microsoft SQL Server->Client Network Utility

then click on TCP/IP in right panel and press 'enable'button', click on
'applay', 'ok' then restart SQL server

You probably mean the Server Network Utility.
