Hi all, I write a small own replication - a trigger which fires an DTC INSERT to another server (one reason for my own "replication": while trigger is running it calculates some data, another: it works from an express version to an express version). When I do the initial insert from the same Host with the windows authentification it works fine. But there is a webserver on another host, which uses the sqlserver login (for testing sa). When this Host do the initial insert I get a Internal abort after the entlisting and creating phase in the DTCTransaction EventClass (Profiler). The magic is: When I first fire it from the same Host with the windows authentification, I can fire it from the webserver and it works fine. But I just have to wait some minutes and it won't work. Where is my error in reasoning... Thanks! Greetz Teutales Here is my initial server script: EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = @Servername, @srvproduct=N'SQL Server' EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname = @Servername, @locallogin = NULL , @useself = N'False', @rmtuser = @Serverlogin, @rmtpassword = @Serverpwd
