Info:
SQL Server: I am running 2 copies of SQL 2008 Enterprise Edition - SP1
OS: Windows Server 2008 Standard
Domain: No domain, workgroup mode


Setup Description:
1) I created a Windows admin account on both servers with the same username and password.
2) The sa accounts on both SQL Servers have the same password.

On subscriber Server
3) I specify "Run each agent as its Subscriber"

Under Distibution Agent Security
4) I use the account created in step 1 above.
Tried both SQL2K8Dev\username and SQL2K8Prod\username formats.

Connect to the Distributor
5) I used the account in step 2 above.


Error Message:

------------------------------


SQL Server could not create a subscription for Subscriber 'SQL2K8PROD'.

Hi,

Can make sure that you have provided an account to run the report and not use the Integrated Security To be able to use Subscriptions, Reporting Services requires you to provide a fixed account.

Or you try sql server backup, it can help you to backup and restore utility for SQL Server.
