Login failed for user '(null)'...

There are two computers, PC1 and PC2. On PC1 I started QueryAnalyzer and
selected a database on PC2 using Windows authentication and executed the
following query:
select * from PC1.Database1.dbo.Table1
I got this error:
Server: Msg 18452, Level 14, State 1, Line 2
Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted
SQL Server connection.
Both servers are set to mixed mode authentication and both are linked
using sp_addlinkedserver. Does anybody have a solution to this issue?

When you created linked server what is the login do you specify?

Hi
You most likely need to specify a login that can access the remote
server. If you don't specify anything, the server will try to connect
using your NT login which requires that the both servers is set to
delegation.
Try to look up sp_addlinkedsrvlogin in BOL - that will give you more info.
