setup linked server on windows 2003 machine

  • Hi,

    I'm using sql server 2000 installed on a win 2k machine. I configured an oracle linked server and able to access data in the oracle database. Now the problem is, "the same" does work on sql server 2000 installed on a win 2003 machine. please help me..

    I get following error when i configure linked server on windows 2003 machine

    Error 7399: OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA'reported an error.

    OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDAORA' IDIntialize::Intialize returned 0x80004005: ].

    It was working well on windows 2000 machine but not on windows 2003. Please help...

    Thanks

  • If you are using ORA92 SQL-NET trythis:

    Look for a file named sqlnet.ora

    look for the line:

    SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES =(****)

    forgot what the default is but change

    **** to NONE

    in other words make it look like the line below:

    SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES =(NONE)

    I had the same problem and this fixed it - maybe it will work for you

  • I changed sqlnet.ora file as you specified, but it's of no use.. i'm facing with same problem...
