intermittent replication issue

Hello,

I currently run a nightly replication from a windows server 2003 machine with sql server 2000 sp3 to a windows 2003 server machine with sql server 2005 sp1. I run a snapshot replication as merge is not supported from 2000 to 2005.

2 out 5 snapshots weekly fail with the following error:

2006-08-09 17:00:06.97 Message Code: 10054
2006-08-09 17:00:06.97
2006-08-09 17:00:06.97 [0%] The replication agent had encountered an exception.
2006-08-09 17:00:06.97 Source: Replication
2006-08-09 17:00:06.97 Exception Type: Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication.ConnectionFailureException
2006-08-09 17:00:06.97 Exception Message: TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

I have setup the sql server 2005 agent service to automatic with a 'log on as' domain admin account. The sql server agent on the 2000 machine uses the local system account.

Does anyone know what i can try to fix this?

Is this the snapshot agent or the distribution agent that's failing?|||

regardless, it's some kind of a security or network problem you're having. Check this similar post: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=187500&SiteID=1.
