I apologize if this question has been asked before, but we're really stumped and the answers I've seen posted don't really apply to our situation. We're getting the following error sporadically in a system that's being run by SQL 2008 R2 and connects to other databases on remote computers using the same version of SQL. The error message may be lengthy, but perhaps one of you will see something we don't:
