log in to sql server 2012 ( source ) and in the SSMS, expand the server objects + Linked Server
2. right click on the linked server and select new link server, which will prompt us with new wizard, in which we need to enter the name
3. i have given the name of the link server, same as my destination instance name . and under that we have ser ver type of 2 radio buttons a. SQL server b. Other DataTypes, in whcih i have choosen SQL Server as my destiantion serv er is also SQL
4. choosen security tab on the left side of the wizard , i had given my log in id only in local login , remote user, remote password category
5. clicked the final OK button , but end up with error .
Please correct me if i am wrong.
