     [ , [ @locallogin = ] 'locallogin' ]

Arguments

  • [ @rmtsrvname=] 'rmtsrvname'
    Is the name of the linked server that the login mapping applies to. rmtsrvname is sysname, with a default of NULL. If NULL, all login mappings defined against all the linked servers defined in the local computer running SQL Server are returned.

  • [ @locallogin=] 'locallogin'
    Is the SQL Server login on the local server that has a mapping to the linked server rmtsrvname. locallogin is sysname, with a default of NULL. NULL specifies that all login mappings defined on rmtsrvname are returned. If not NULL, a mapping for locallogin to rmtsrvname must already exist. locallogin can be a SQL Server login or a Windows user. The Windows user must have been granted access to SQL Server either directly or through its membership in a Windows group that has been granted access.
