The following is a consolidation of the steps for setting up SQL Server on two servers to allow the use of remote procedure calls.


MORE INFORMATION

  1. Run the following on machine 1:
    
          sp_addserver m1,local
          sp_addserver m2
    
          sp_configure 'remote access',1
          reconfigure
     


  2. Stop and restart SQL Server on machine 1.


  3. Run the following on machine 2:
    
          sp_addserver m2,local
          sp_addserver m1
    
          sp_configure 'remote access',1
          reconfigure
    
       sp_addremotelogin m1,sa,sa
       sp_remoteoption m1,sa,sa,trusted,true
     


  4. Stop and restart SQL Server on machine 2.


The system administrator (SA) can now log in to machine 1 and execute a procedure on machine 2. For example:
m2...sp_who
