Replication suddenly stopped between 2k5 and 2k

  • Please help...

    We have replication setup from a 2k5 enterprise server here in the UK to a 2k standard server in Sweden. It has been running for about 2 months without any problems but last night it just stopped.

    The replication monitor shows this message:

    Executed as user: . The replication agent encountered a failure. See the previous job step history message or Replication Monitor for more information. The step failed.

    The previous job step in the history shows this:

    And then it just stops... There are plenty more articles than that!

    I thought this might be a rights issue, but I can create a terminal services session onto the UK server using the service account that the merge agent uses, and log on to the Swedish server and query the database. Also the user is in the local admin group of both the UK and the Swedish server.

    Please help!
