Easy SQL 7 Replication question

Hello,
I have replication b/w 2 SQL 7.0 SP4 servers over a t1
connection. The type of replication is non-immediate
updating transactional replication pushing 1 way.
Sometimes the t1 connection will die. When the connection
comes back up the SQL Servers begin replicating again.
What happens to the transactions on the push server during
the connection loss? Are they stored in the distribution
DB until the SQL Servers can communicate again?
Please advise...
Thanks,
Louis
Louis,
they are never lost - they stay in MSrepl_commands on the distribution
database until all subscribers have read them or they have reached the
Transaction Retention Period (assuming non-anonymous subscribers).

Paul Ibison
|||I believe these commands will reside in the MSreplication_queue table.

referring to transactions on the push server.
