Thank you!
By dblink I am referring to a linked server. (I apologize - I come
from an Oracle background).
The BUILTIN/Administrators group has all of the System Roles and it
still did not work.
Other boxes have links into the server/instance which work fine, and
the new server can link to other servers.
It's strange because it's just this one combination that does not work.
Group A: oldest servers; non-clustered; Win 2003 SP1
Group B: medium servers; 1 a/p cluster; 2 non-clustered; Win 2003 SP1
Group C: newest servers; 3 a/a clusters; Win 2003 R2
All SQL Server 2000 SP4
Group A can link to Group B
Group A can link to Group C
Group B can link to Group A
Group B can link to Group C
Group C can link to Group A
Group C CANNOT link to Group A if logged in using Windows
Authentication
All of the links are set up using "sa".
