remo writes "Hello everybody,
i have a question, i need to view in Sql Server 2000 sp3 a paradox table using linked server.
I successfully create a dns system file that reconize paradox but the main problem is a security problem because into paradox there is no security autentication but sql server must have a remote user with his password for login in remote server.

how to bypass this problem? any suggestion?


thanks,

Remo Angeloni"

Just use the 2nd option in the linked server window. It's named "Be made without using security context". That or maybe look at openrowset. I know openrowset still has a slot for uid/pw but maybe you could just leave those blank?
