  Hi,

  I'm trying to execute a sp on a remote linked server, but I'm getting the following error:

  "Could not connect to server '[NameOfTheLinkedServer]' because '[UsernameThatIsUsedForConnecting]' is not defined as a remote login at the server. Verify that you have specified the correct login name. ."

  This user I'm using has full rights on the remote machine. Anyway, Select Statements are working but no executes on remote procedures.

  Any ideas?

  Regards,

  Jan

  How is the linked server configured? Are logins mapped? It is possible that there is a misconfiguration here.
