                                          | Im using Windows Authentication on the local server.  But on the remote server I had a username and password. Would this matter? |

                                          | I figured it out.  The user I created on my local server didn't have the permissions it needed to connect.  I gave it permission and presto.  Thanks everyone for your help. |
