I'm trying to build a cube in Analysis services in MS SQL.  I've setup
my data source to the local database and I'm choosing a view that uses
an openquery to Unidata.  The view works without issues, I can browse my
data inside the analysis services, but when I try to actually process
the cube I get this error.

Data source provider error: Cannot get the column information from OLE
DB provider "IBM.UniOLEDB" for linked server "M2K".;42000;The OLE DB
provider "IBM.UniOLEDB" for linked server "M2K" reported an error.
Access denied.;42000; Time:5/11/2006 10:34:05 AM

I'm guessing that there is a setting I can add to the linked server to
allow the column information being read?  I don't want to take the time
to pull the data into a table in SQL since it is a load of data and
isn't necessary to archive in SQL.  Can't I just use the linked server
with a view and build my cube?  For my test I'm only pulling the top 9
rows so it's not like it's timing out or anything.
