  • Hi,

    I have also the same problem. After the installation of SQL SP2 it is still the same. I have 2 servers. One (publisher) is in Bratislava, Slovakia and the second one is in Melbourne (subscriber). THey are connected via the Internet. Replication was running without any troubles more then 3 years. Now it runs, but several times per day I have to restart the server in Bratislava to run it again.

    If anybody is able to help us I would appreciate it a lot.

    regards

    Ivan
