not a trusted connection

I never had this problem between two WIN2k servers.
I have a new Win2003(XP) server with SQL 2000 and an old Win2k server
with SQL 7. I'm trying to run a query for data from a table on 7 joined
to a table on 2000 inserting into a table on 2000.
Regardless of which server hosts the query I get an error about user
'null' not being a trusted SQL server connection. Same error whether I
run the query in QAnalyser or DTS.
I have admin rights on both servers and both DBMs.
I DON'T have a domained network; windows networking. Since I've done
things between the 7 server and my dev server (W2k/SQL2000) I'm guessing
it's something to do with a stricter W2003 and seperate, but same
username, identities on each local machine.
Can anybody tell me what the next step is?
thx

using a linked server that is set up to use the current
users security context. And you are logging into SQL Server
using windows authentication.
It's not clear from which box you are initiating this from.
Even if it was initiated from SQL 2000, sounds like you
would still need to use a SQL login for the linked server.

Normal Procedure for shutdown SQL Server

Dear Sir,
I have a cluster Active/Passive cluster setting, Win2003. I would like to
know the normal procedures for shuting down the SQL Server on both nodes. Is
that needed to disable the passive node before using SQL Manager to shutdown
SQL Server?Please kindly advise!
Many thanks!
From,
Henry
Hi
Do not use SQL Manager to do anything with clustered SQL servers.
You must use Cluster Administrator to take a group offline or bring it
online again.
If you use SQL Manager, you in effect cause a failover.
