                                            | I am having a problem with a linked server.  I have 52 linked servers on one server.  All of the connections work correctly but one.  On this one, I can run a select from my source server to the problem server and it runs fine.  When I run a job against it that runs stored procedures, I get the following error.SQLState = 42000, NativeError = 7202Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Could not find server 'Myserver' in sys.servers. Verify that the correct server name was specified. If necessary, execute the stored procedure sp_addlinkedserver to add the server to sys.servers.NULLThe server name exists in the linked servers with the correct security.If anyone has come across this problem, please let me know how you fixed it.Thank you in advance. |  |

                                          | The owner of the job is the sql service.  It works on all other linked servers other than this one. |
