Linked Servers In Microsoft SQL 2005

Mar 25, 2008

Hi,

I have:
- SQL 2005 Dev on machine A
- SQL 2005 Dev on machine B

I've made a linked server from A to B using:
- Windows authentication
- SQL Server authentication

However, I ran into the following "problems":

- When creating a linked server from A to B, when I do a "new linked server" I have to give it the same name as machine B.
- Therefore, I can only make one linked server to B (not f.ex. make two, one Windows authentication and one SQL Server authentication).

Is it only possable to make one linked server to a machine running SQL Server 2005?

Thank you.

If i try and run a swl statment on the sql server 2005 side the procedure works.

Sql 2005 To Sql 2000 Linked Servers Problem.

Jul 25, 2006

We have two sql servers using Windows authentication. One is sql 2000 the other sql 2005. When logged in as "sa", I can link these servers and run a SELECT distributed query without any problem.

But when one of our developers runs the same query (he is "dbo" of each database on each of the servers) he gets the error:

"OLE DB Provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server <Servername> returned message "Communication Link Failure"
...
Login failed for user '(null'). reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection"

Despite that, I, as "sa" equivalent, have no problem so it appears to be a permisisons issue. Any ideas what is going on here?

TIA,

Barkingdog

SQL 2005 Log-shipping/replication Linked Servers

Aug 9, 2007

I am having trouble finding any documentation on how linked servers are set-up under SQL 2005 for log-shipping and replication. Under SQL 2000, the only linked servers "visible" were ones that were user-defined. Under SQL 2005, it seems when you set-up log-shipping or replication, you get these new linked servers which are automatically defined. I would like to understand them and in particular, how security is maintained. We recently had a production issue where after some problem with a server which resulted in having to restart SQL Server, and shrink msdb, log-shipping started to fail authentication when trying to run alert jobs. Only after rebooting the server, and also the log-ship target server, and waiting 9 hours, did the authentication correct itself. I would like to know how it resolved itself and what took so long?

Jet.OLEDB.4.0 And Linked Servers (SQL Standard 2005 On Win2003 SP1)

Dec 5, 2006

I have been trying to figure out for some time why Linked Servers do not continue to run. I start up my SQL Server Database service, and then using SQL Server Management Studio I create one or more linked servers to Microsoft Access Databases using the Jet Provider. I then run some queries to that access those linked servers without any problems. (One currently is called 'THE')

After some time has passed, possibly minutes, hours or days, I can no longer access any of the linked servers. No data, queries, tables, or anything is accessible to me anymore. I use this command "EXEC sp_testlinkedserver N'THE' " to test the linked server and get the following error msg.

OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "THE" returned message "Unspecified error".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_testlinkedserver, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "THE".

The only solution I have to fix this currently is to restart the SQL Server Database service. I have tried deleting and recreating the Linked server before doing this to no avail. I have also used the FileMon and RegMon tools on the server to try to determine the problem but have no no success. After restarting the SQL service I can run the "EXEC sp_testlinkedserver N'THE' " command successfully "Command(s) completed successfully." and can access the linked servers again without any problems.

Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

Mark.

P.S. I have tried changing the security options on the linked server from "Be made without a context." to using the "Admin" username and leaving the password blank, to several other possible variations and options, as well as setting up the system.mdw database in the registry to no avail.

After SQL 2005 SP2, Query To Apartment Linked Servers Fails

Mar 6, 2007

We have a linked server that is an Apartment model OLE DB Provider. It works fine on SQL 2005 SP1. After applying SP2, we get the following msg when running a query against the linked server. I cannot find anything in the SP2 doc that indicates a change of behavior for linked servers. Any ideas ?

Configuring A Linked Microsoft Access Database On SQL Server 2005

Nov 7, 2007

The following installation:

- Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
- Client Service for Netware installed.
- Access 2000 database in a Novell Directory Services (NDS) Environment
- SQL Server service running under local Administrator account.

Linked server configured as follow:

Linked server: MyDB
Provider: Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider
Product name: Access 2000
Data Source: UNC path to my Access database

Security: Admin with no password (default Access behaviour)

I can connect to my access database by following the next steps:

- Open Management studio on the SQL Server itself (where I'm logged in as Administrator)
- Connect using Windows Authentication (Administrator)
- Create a new query, run EXEC sp_tables_ex 'MyDB'

This will return all the tables from the Access database.

I can also make a view pointing to MyDB...MyTable.

Enough prove to me It can work....

So far so good

But now the tricky part.

When I login as 'sa', I can't connect and will receive the following message:

OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "MyDB" returned message "'Full UNC to my access database' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.".Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_tables_ex, Line 41Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "MyDB".

(In real life I want to connect to my SQL 2005 Server from a ASP.NET (2.0) application using SQL authentication, but as long as I can't get the above working this is not important for now)

Linked Servers In DTS...

Jun 25, 2001

Hi,

I'm using SQL Server 7.0 SP1.

I have a DTS package that requires me to link 2 servers
and query both in order to get my set of records that I
want to Transform. My query runs fine in QA. I copy and
paste it into the SQL Query window of the transformation.
I click Preview and all that happens is a quick flicker of
the DTS window. When I go to Transformations, there are
no source columns.

Here is a copy of my code that I'm trying to use:
-------------------------------------------------------
declare@start_dteas datetime,
@end_dteas datetime

SELECT@start_dte = date_data_range_start_dte,
@END_DTE = date_data_range_END_dte
FROMSIDDEV.SID_DEVELOPMENT.DBO.T901_RUN
WHERERUN_ID = (selectmax(run_id)
from
SIDDEV.SID_DEVELOPMENT.DBO.t901_run
whererun_type_cd = 'M')

SELECTRUN_ID
INTO#RUNS
FROMCRMDEV02.MDCORE.DBO.T901_RUN
WHEREDATE_DATA_RANGE_START_DTE >= @START_DTE
ANDDATE_DATA_RANGE_END_DTE <= @END_DTE

SELECTT70.*
FROM
CRMDEV02.MDCORE.DBO.T70_MD_UNIVERSE_RELATIONSHIP_M A
NGT AS T70 JOIN #RUNS
ONT70.RUN_ID = #RUNS.RUN_ID

DROP TABLE #RUNS
------------------------------------------------------
Is there an issue with Linked Servers and DTS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

When I create linked server using integrated security and <they will be impersonated> option I get this:

MS Technet says that SQL Server 7 doesn't allow double hops and to use mappings to standard security login to work around. @#%%~~@@#@#&^%@#
Impersonating to version 6.5 works fine.
Is there any way to link servers using ONLY integrated security?

About Linked Servers

Nov 3, 2000

Hi.
I'm working with SQL Server 7.0 and I've been reading about the linked server option. My question is, if it's possible to link a server with a SQLBase database 7.01.

I have download some drivers to my computer, the odbc driver for sqlbase and the sqlbase ole db driver as well, but when I try to add a new linked server in the enterprise, in the provider name option I can not see any provider name addressing to Centura or Sql base driver.

Has anybody an idea how to make this connection then? or the right way for doing it??

Thanks for any help can be offered.
Regards, Elvia.

We are creating a newServer grabbing data from an extrnal data source.

We need to perform regular audits to verify the record counts (for now) are the same.

We have 2 physically separate SQL servers 1 with old 1 with new.

I have created a linked server but when i do a query on the linked server the performace is pathetic (2mins 12 secs) to do a simple count.

Is there a better way, or can improv the perf?
