Home Forums SQL Server 7,2000 SQL Server Agent Login failed for user ''NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON''. [SQLSTATE 28000] (Error 18456) RE: Login failed for user ''NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON''. [SQLSTATE 28000] (Error 18456)

  • Hi,

    solution for this issue is give remote login user id and password in linked server properties.

    1.Add linked server using sp_addlinkedserver 'server name'

    2.Right Click -->Properties --> Security -->Add --> Give Remote User & password for Local Login

    3.Below that u can find a text 'For a login not defined in the list above,Connection will' with four radio button options

    Select last option - Be made using this security context Remote Login with password.

    This simple solution worked for me.

    Thanks
