Log Shipping is not replication in the immediate sense, but it is as close as I could find in this set of forums. If there is a better place for this question, please direct me to it.
I am trying to set up Log shipping on two new servers, one is primary and the other is backup. I have made sure that the SQL Startup Login is the same name and password on both servers, and that it has all administrative permissions. When I try to set up Log Shipping, after I click the 'Finish' button, I get the following error:
Error 50007: xp_repl_encrypt: Error executing srv_paramsetoutput
I have done a search for this on support.microsoft.com, and on all of Microsoft. I have found nothing on these attempts. I have even Googled it, and have found very limited entries about making sure that the passwords are the same on both machines, etc. I have followed that advice, to no avail.
The two new machines in question are running Windows Adv Server 2000, and are part of a work group, not a domain. They can see each other, and can read / write to each others shared areas (I have verified that the areas for the Log Shipping are shared).
If anyone can shed some light on this, I would be very grateful.
Thanks in advance,
Rollin

log_shipping_monitor_probe to validate against the monitor server.
In order do despite the problem try to use a single char in the log_shipping_monitor_probe password's. If the problem is resolved you have to find a password with a length up to 8 chars.
I think this is a bug in the log-shipping fo SQL Server 2000 but MS guys can tell us more...
