• SQL Server Error 15401 Adding Domain Group to SQL Server

• SQL Server Soft-Replication Problems seting up MSTDC on W2K

  Hello, A bit of a double question. We are setting up a new environment but this time we don't want to use the build-in replication. As we have a very changing environment these replications block us in modifying tables. (Was on W2K/Sql2000). To avoid this we would write a softreplication, now we are running on W2003AS/Sql2005Ent, but when trying to run a transaction to an older server this error pops up. " The transaction manager has disabled its support for remote/network transactions". I've found some articles on how to solve this but they all mention a buttin 'security config' on the MSDTC tab page of MyComp in CompServ. But i can't see that Button on a W2k. Any suggestions .. Or, 2nd question, is it still ...Show All
