Linked SQL Table Can't Be Found

I moved my back-end Access tables to SQL and updated the links in the front-end to point to the SQL tables. When someone else attempts to use the updated front-end and open a linked table they get the following error message:

Could not execute query; could not find linked table.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid object name 'dbo.RA_SurveyRestriction'.(#208)

If the other user deletes the linked table and then creates the linked table on their own machine, the same table works fine. Any ideas?
 
Some things to check.

Are both of you using the same DSN to link the SQL table?

Is one of you using SQL authentication while the other uses a trusted NT connection?
