Make sure you can ping it from the "linking from" server. It's most likely a switch or firewall problem.

I've also foun one that using the ip adress was working while the servername was failing. I.m usre it's a network issue but I never pursued that one.

you also need to check security. There should be a trust issue between domains, or make sure you qualify accounts.

Or is this SQL authentication?

If you post the exact error, we might be able to help more.
