We are combining the distribution and publicaiton functions to a single server. Originally we had them on separate servers. Under the original scenario the publisher had a linked server to subscriber1 created thru replication, and the publisher had a linked
server to subscriber1 one in order for the applicaitons to run stored procedures and functions on the subscriber both the original distributor and publisher had the server named subscriber1.The applications use a specific sql user to access procs and functions from the publisher. Now, when we combine the distributor and publisher, replication creates a linked server named subscriber1 so I can't create the linked server named subscriber1
now. What would be my options here, setting up a 2nd linked server to the same server subscriber1 on the new combined dist/pub since access has to be done via different accounts? Anyone aware of options or issues I will encounter here? Thanks
