Exec/Query across servers (unlinked)

Can I exec/query across unlinked servers that are on the network but
physically different server instances? If so, how, please?
TIA!
RobertTake a look at OPENROWSET and OPENDATASOURCE in Books On line

http://sqlservercode.blogspot.com/|||You can use OPENROWSET
SELECT *
FROM OPENROWSET('SQLOLEDB','otherinstance';'u
ser';'pwd',
'SELECT * FROM somedb.dbo.mytable')|||My bad...
I wasn't using fully qualified naming. I was using something like
ABC123.dbo.TableName instead of DEV.ABC123.dbo.TableName.
Thanks!

Exchanging message between two servers

If i want to exchange message between two different instances (or) databases in two different servers, then I have to enable the transport protocol which wil be disabled by default in service broker.I read in some article that some registry settings has to be changed.So can someone suggest on the same.

"Connection attempt failed with error: '10061(No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.)'."Im getting this error in the initiating database.The message that i sent still exists in thr Transmission queue fo initiating database.

It will be better if someone sends a sample or the steps to follow to communicate between databases in two different servers.So that i can cross check with mine.

here is a pretty good article on writing distributed service broker applications:
