I have just configured a linked server. On both the local server and remote server my Windows login has sysadmin access.

Under the security tab of the linked server I have added my Local Login and ticked the Impersonate box.

However when I try to run a stored procedure on the linked server I get the following error message:

Could not connect to server 'POCSQL\POCSQL' because '' is not defined as a remote login at the server. Verify that you have specified the correct login name

I know if you use domain\user name on linked servers it don't connect if you have not configured kerbos. Try a sql login and see if that works. To get linked servers with windows authentication you need kerbos setup
