Replication over WAN setup

Hello, I'm newbie in replication field. At the moment, I am able to setup replication on LAN (1 distributor to few subcribers). However, I found some difficulties on setting-up the replication on WAN. Is there any guidelines, setup documents or examples (like print screen) for me to refer to ? Hope able to get any assistance at here.

Best Regards,

Hans

Hello Hans,

What kind of difficulties did you see? Can you list them?

Thanks.

are you replicating between two different domains? If so, please reference this support article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321822/en-us.

If not, please give us some more info, such as complete error number and error message.

First define if the problem is the network connection (routing, firewall, e.t.c.)

Then if it is a security problem (different domains without trust, accounts with improper rights, wrong passwords, e.t.c.)

Lastly if it is a SQL config problem (e.g. are you running the SQL service with the SA account?)

Can you give more details?

Sorry for the late reply guys, I guess I just figure out my problem. For WAN setup, wat I need is have to do some alias mapping for the server that I wanna connect (subscriber or publisher server). Once did the mapping , replication is able to run. :) Thx for the advice by the way.

Best Regards,

Hans
