Remarks

An instance of SQL Server can implement SQL Server connection authorization for another instance of SQL Server. An authorized server may connect to execute a remote procedure call or for other purposes.

To establish authorization, a remote server is defined on the authorizing instance of SQL Server. A mapping (remote login) for a login established and maintained on the remote server can be built on the authorizing instance of SQL Server.

For example, a server, called AcctPay, used by an organization's accounts payable department, may execute remote stored procedures on the purchasing department's Purch server. On Purch, an AcctPayRemote login is created and given appropriate rights for all accounts payable department users. For each authorized login on AcctPay, a remote login is created and mapped to AcctPayRemote.

Note  Remote server and login records enable SQL Server Authentication for connections initiated by an instance of SQL Server.
