Hi,

Iam getting the below error after executing the sp's creation script on a new database.


Msg 65535, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
SQL Network Interfaces: Error Locating Server/Instance Specified [xFFFFFFFF].
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "2AD\SQL2005" returned message "Login timeout expired".
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "2AD\SQL2005" returned message "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.".

This is a connectivity issue. Try connecting with hostname,portnumber.
