Error 7391 when distributed transaction started

Node 1:
Windows 2003 Server Standar Edition SP1
SQL Server 2005 Standar Edition
Node 2:
Windows 2000 Server SP4
SQL Server 2000 Standar Edition SP3a
Node 1 have node 2 like "linked server", node 2 have node 1 like "linked
server" too.
Both nodes use Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server.
Node 1 begins a distributed transaction vs Node 2.
Transaction KO with
"Server: Msg 7391, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB'
was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
OLE/DB provider returned message: New transaction cannot enlist in the
specified transaction coordinator. ]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB'
ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d00a]."
MS DTS is configured in Node 1 like microsoft said in
http://suppport.microsoftl.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;329332
If I change Node1 with Windows 2000 Server Standard Edition and SQL Server
2000 SP3a, the distribution transaction run OK.
Thanks a lot.Hi
Windows 2003 has more secure defaults than Windows 2000 therefore it is
probably something that has not been configured that is causing the problem

You can use DTCPing to check it can communicate with the server
