Just a heads-up, anything before SQL Server 2016 is no longer supported, so it's a good idea to consider upgrading to a newer version for the best security and support.

Now, onto your question! Are you using TLS 1.3 or TLS 1.2 on your client machine? It's worth noting that SQL Server 2000 doesn't support TLS 1.2, while TLS 1.2 is available for SQL Server 2008 and later versions. Also, TLS 1.3 kicks in from SQL Server 2022 onwards, each with their own cipher suites.

If you're looking for a workaround, you could enable TLS 1.1 on your client machine, though it's not the safest option since it's deprecated. However, if you need to, you can still enforce its usage in your application.
