Running SQL Server 2005 on Windows Server 2003. Can the subscriber database to my publication be renamed? Experimented with renaming a test database but replication failed. Thanks.

Syncronizing between Distributor and Subscriber in Merge Replication

Jah — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 09:57:32 +0000

HI everybody,

i am using merge replication.
my concept is that: a publisher publishes a file and then it synchronized with distributor in a schedule (publisher and distributor are in same server).
Then Subscriber subscribes (Sync) from (with) distributor not publisher. I want distributor to act as a freezed database which Synchronizes with subscriber once a daily but distributor and publisher can synchronized more than once in a day.

is this possible?

till now i have achieved Sync between
1. distributor and publisher
2. subscriber and publisher

but unable to make distributor sync with subscriber?

i am using MSSQL 2005 and my subscriber is a PDA.

Any help will be very much appreciated.
thank you
