 Can't see all DBs on linked server

I've added a new DB (actually a restore from another instance) onto a SQL instance, but can't access it from a remote client. Using management studio, when I expand the Catalogs folder below the linked server, I don't see my DB. There are 10+ DBs on that server, and only 3 show up in the catalog. I can access the data from those 3 DBs, but none of the others, including my new restore. The error message I get is:

Msg 7314, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "sl7-dev" does not contain the table ""test_slappcad"."dbo"."soheader"". The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table.


Any ideas? Thanks.

Login used in linked server should have permission for other DB.
