I want to Linked the server from SQL 2005 to SQL 2000 but I am getting this following error. I tried to coneect to some other server it works fine. IS there any additional access port required?
I am getting this error below: I am trying to connect to SQL 2000 server
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "PROD_CD" returned message "Login timeout expired".
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "PROD_CD" returned message "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.".
Msg 53, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53].

Login timeout errors are usually (a) the server isn't running, (b) the network/connection is too slow.
