I need help using a remote admin to another SQL Server...

Lets say I am using SQLServerA on MachineA, I have a remote login to SQLServerB on MachineB (giving me full administrator rights).

SQLServerB has a Linked Server (LinkedServerB1) to a local AccessDB (stored on MachineB).
From SQLServerA on MachineA I can get full access to the tables in LinkedServerB1 (and use them in views, etc).

SQLServerB also has a Linked Server (LinkedServerB2) to a second AccessDB (stored on another server on the network (MachineC)).
The problem is from SQLServerA on MachineA I cannot get access to LinkedServerB2.

SQLServerB on MachineB CAN access the LinkedServerB2 and its tables with no problems.

What could be the problem, Security, NT Logon??? or is it possible to do this at all??

It may help to undrstand this problem if you draw a diagram!!!
