Question about SQL Server 2000 registration

Just found this out by trial and error. I was trying to register a 2nd
instance of SQL Server 2000 on one of our servers. I was able to register,
no problem, but I noticed that this server instance (call it
name>\testname) was not visible on the available servers list of the
registration wizard.

Is this just a bug in the 2000 Enterprise Manager or is there something you
have to do during instance setup to make 2nd instances visible on the list?

(When I deleted all registrations for that server, the
appeared on the list but still no \testname. I should also
mention that I was not the one who set up the 2nd instance and 2nd instances
are not a common practice in our shop.)
