sql server replication:
OK. I'm officially insane.

I've managed to create an orphaned push subscription. I deleted the
subscribers from EM via the publisher screen, then I deleted the publishers.
But under replication|subscribers there is still a subscriber to a
publication that does not exist.

It seems my efforts to discover ways to break replication are paying off.

Try sp_dropsubscriber and sp_dropsubscription.

Had already tried that. Didn't work. Ultimately used sp_dropdistributor.
Development servers are so much fun.

Any clue as to how I can end up with orphaned subscriptions? It seems
dropping things through EM would be relatively safe and it would clean up
after itself.
