I have a sql server 2005 database that I have set as the publisher and an sql express database that I have set as the subscriber.

I set it that the 2005 db should push to the sql express db.

when i look at the replication monitor I get an error

The process could not connect to subscriber name/sqlexpress

what can I do to get this working?
I really am trying to just replicate 1 table every minute from the sql 2005 db to the sql express
Please advise?

Are they in same domain? What's sql service startup account? How did you set replication permission? Need details for people to help you.

no not the same domain
different servers that are networked..
for the main one I used windows log in for the subscription i used a sql login with full permissions.

what's the right way to do this?

Looks like sql service account on sql2k5 doesn't have permission to access sql express. Possible to trust domains?

the sysadmin says they are the same domain but when i log in to sql i put in a different domain in the usrname field (or is that username?)

if they are the same domain then what could be the problem?

I got it working -- but I have another database that I would like to synchronize that's on a different domain and they can't be trusted domains - is this possible to do using the sql login credentials?
