Error with ASP.NET 2.0 page running a linked server query

I have a query i want to run via my asp webpage. It runs fine in SQL Server 2005. It's based on a linked server. However when I tried to throw this query up in ASP. I get the following error. I need someone to help me figure out what this means in plain engrish. I don't really know what to do...

The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IN-MMGE-CELLLAB" reported an error. Authentication failed.
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IN-MMGE-CELLLAB".

Stack Trace:
