Error Message: OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "gtsun2" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data
source name not found and no default driver specified".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "gtsun2".
CREATION OF LINKED SERVER USING ODBC [INFORMIX 2.80 32 BIT] OR [INTERSOLV 3.01 32-BIT INFORMIX]
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server = N'gtsun2',
@srvproduct=N'Informix-CLI 2.9 (32 bit)',
@provider=N'MSDASQL',
@datasrc=N'Localserver',
@catalog='cmbs',
@provstr=N'server=gtsun2;
database=cmbs;
uid=reports;password=reports';
ADDING REMOTE USER
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
@rmtsrvname='gtsun2',
@useself='false',
@locallogin='gtdomain\reports',
@rmtuser='reports',
@rmtpassword='reports'
THEN I USE select * from gtsun2.master.dbo.sysdatabases. THATS OK.
BUT WHEN I USE select * from gtsun2.master.dbo.sysdatabases, I GET THIS ERROR MESSAGE
I AM ALSO USING THIS TYPE OF SECURITY FOR MY LINKED SERVER. I HAVE ADDED USER reports. This user is known on the remote server and also on the domain of the local machine that has sqlserver2005.
