Cannot access WUS Administration Error connecting to SQLServer

I am attempting to setup a WUS server.

Windows 2000 Server SP4
IIS 5.0
MSDE installed WUS instance and is running.

My question has to do primarily with the connection string used by WUS
to communicate with the SQLServer as the error I am getting is directly
related to WUS's attempt to connect to the SQL Server.

When going to the WUSAdmin web page I get the following error:

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is denied.

Any ideas or am I in the wrong newsgroup?
