Linked server HELP!

Post by Ric » Wed, 13 Feb 2002 00:11:05



Hello, I am trying to setup a linked server between my
PROD and DEV server.  On the DEV server, Using Enterprise
Manager, I try to create a link to the PROD server.  I
specify the name, the impersonation user id and password,
etc and it appears to work (ie there are no errors).  But
when I attempt a query it cannot find the object.

So I tried it the other way around; from PROD to DEV and
it works fine!  DEV is a weekly copy of PROD.  

I must be missing something but I can't figure out what it
is.  Can anyone help?  

Thanks

Ric

See sp_addlinkedsrvlogin and related procs in BOL. In my opinion its easier
than EM. One time I had to drop the linked server and start over.

1. SQL Server 7 Linked Server Help

Hi All,
I am just getting in to SQL 7 and i need to now the following:
1. Is it possible to link to an Informix database on a Unix box through the
linked servers option?
2. Can i set the link up to only allow read only connections to the linked
database?

What i need to do is to live link a number of tables to an SQL database for
real time querying purposes rather than bcp'ing the data accross as we do at
present in 6.5

Can anyone give me detailed answers to these questions please.

Thanks in advance
