Author  Topic  Revuca Starting Member 19 Posts Posted - 2002-12-13 : 11:41:21 Hi, If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it. I can't seem to find sufficient info on Books Online. I have a publisher set up on a server. Publisher & distributor are on the same server. I need to be able to replicate data to remote servers (MSDE on Win98 machines - home users). These machines will use dial-up connections to access the publisher. How can I set up the subscribers to access the publishing server without pointing to an existing 'registered server' ? I don't know how to get round this as most home pc's will never be able to connect and I need to cater for 'roaming' users. I'm planning to create the database through a script that will be run on all these pc's. How do I connect publisher & subscriber together ? Maybe I'm missing something vitally important, but any help will do. Thanks Mike
