I connected to Management studio. Created Linked server of server B on server A. I tried to select all the rows from a table, but i got this error. I'm sysadmin on both the servers.

OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "server B" returned message "Invalid authorization specification".
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "server B" reported an error. Authentication failed.
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "server B".

right click on linked server and look for correct credentials

script the linked server and post it here. It has something to do with the permissions.

I created a sql authenticated login on server B and went to the linked server properties and selected "Be made using this security context" and gave the login and password. This way I'm able to connect to server B from A.

Earlier I used "Be made using login's currect security context" as I'm sysadmin on both the servers. But I'm getting the error"Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Line 1
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'."

does this login 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON' has appropriate permissions on both servers.
