When you set up a linked server, you use sp_addlinkedserver to set up
the server as such, and the sp_addlinkedsrvlogin to set up the login
mapping.

But obviously for the login mapping to be mapping, there as to be
something on the other end. I don't know if you can to with dBase.
Or with Jet for that matter, but everything should go in the connection
string I guess.

Thanks Erland.

I've given up. I've asked the team who needed this to move their dBase
files to a share on the SQL server.
