Problem using a linked server in an insert trigger

I'm writing an insert trigger in one SQL Server database that is supposed to insert another record into a linked SQL Server database. I have the linked server set up and have been using it for a few weeks in queries and stored procedure with no problem. Now that I'm trying to use it within a trigger and it just bombs.

I'm getting the following message in one of my logs and I don't know what it means... "Failed to obtain TransactionDispenserInterface: XACT_E_TMNOTAVAILABLE". I've googled around, but can't really find anything. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Bryan

I started the MS DTC service and I no longer get those error messages, but the problem still remains.
