Trans Replication from 2 disjoint domains -- sql server replication

sql server replication : Trans Replication from 2 disjoint domains

I have a ServerA in one domain and ServerB in another domain.

The only way I can get to them is thru an IP address.

So ServerA which is the publisher can ping ServerB which is a subscriber and
not vice versa.

Is that all I need in addition to opening up the default port of 1433 of
ServerB on the source network to connect to ?

Also, how do i set up authentication ?

Right now ServerA also publisher to other servers in the same domain and use
the SQL Server Service account that is a local admin on all these servers.

But on ServerB thats on another domain, there is no AD set up and they
cannot authenticate thru Windows account.

So with that, how do i set up transactional replication to this particular
subscriber ? Using SQL 2K

Thanks

You'll need to use SQL authentication and use FTP for the initialization. In
this case you need to open the FTP port (21) and make sure 1433 is open in
both directions between the publisher/distributor and subscriber.

It sounds like you should be able to do a push in this case. Make sure that
port 1433 is open for inbound traffic on the firewall for server b. For
authentication you will either need to do pass through authentication (same
NT accounts) or configure sql authentication on the subscriber.
