LINKED SERVER PROBLEM

  • HI

    I am trying to add linked server from sql server 2000 to sql server 2005. My destination machine is having sql server 2005 ( named instance ) . Somehow after creating the linked server whenever i am clicking on tables it is throwing error :

    Error: 17 SQL Server doesnot exist or access denied.

    The login from which iam trying to add linked server exists on both the servers with sysadmin priviliges.

    Can anyone please tell me how do i go about this ?????
