netstat doesnt show me 1433 port LISTENING

Sometimes when I setup ms SQL Server 2000 in a machine and i run
"netstat -na" doesnt show me 1433 port listening, and sometimes it
does. why is that?

Check in the server network utility that you are actually using this port,
if you are using a named instance the default is to allocate the port
dynamically.
