hi,
Im I want to configure my sqlserver 2005 server as both subscriber and distributor for transactional replication purposes.
I want to configure the sql server 2000 as the publisher.

When I try to configure the publisher in the sql 2000 server, Im not being able to establish the connection with the distributor 2005 sql server in any of the 2 possible cases.
case1-Using windows authentication- message:need to use management studio or SMO
case2-Using sql server authentication-message:authentication failed

Question:
Is it possible at all to do this? or should I make the distributor to reside in a sql 2000 server?

thank you

You can register sql2k server in ssms and configure publisher there.
