I appreciate if some one please help me to solve the following problem


SYMPTOMS

I am runnning the Setup program to install Microsoft Windows SharePoint
Services. After the Setup program is completed successfully, I configure
Windows SharePoint Services settings in SharePoint Central Administration. I
then specify configuration database settings on the Set Configuration
Database Server page of SharePoint Central Administration, and then I click
OK. Then, I receive one of the following error messages:
"Error 18456" error message when you specify configuration database settings
on the Set Configuration Database Server page of SharePoint Central
Administrator"

I have gone through the article on
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=889646&FR=1 but it does not help me out.
Please let me know if some one came across this problem & i could solve it
with your support
Thanks in advance
