PASV ftp?

Hi!
We installed a new router and now the ftp server only works in passive mode.
Is there a way to configure the replication agent to transfer the snapshot
using PASV?
Replication is merge pull.
Thanks.

no, SQL Server replication only supports the ftp command set used by
Microsoft FTP server. You are free to use any other vendor's FTP server, but
are restricted to Microsoft's FTP command set.

Passive node starting the SQL Server services - services set to ma

Hello all,
I have a very bizarre situation with a single instance/two node/W2K3
cluster. The issue I am seeing is that the passive node is starting the sql
server services even though the resources are not owned by that node. The
restarts are occuring every five minutes. The system log shows the SYSTEM
account starting MSSQLSERVER. Then, 3 seconds later, I get a message stating
the service stopped. About 5-8 seconds later, I get a message that the
SQLSERVERAGENT could not be started because sqlservr.exe is not running. The
cluster log is not showing anything being started/stopped. The applicaiton
log is complaining about the errorlog being unavailable. However, this is
correct because the resources are not on this node.
The SQL Server services are set to manual on both nodes. Both nodes have
been rebooted in the past 24 hours due to EMC PowerPath upgrades. The only
thing that is a little bizare is that the SQL Server resource group and SQL
Server resource have the preferred owners/possible owners in reverse order.
IE (SQL Server resource group has NODE1/NODE2; SQL Server Resource has
NODE2/NODE1). Right now all resources are on NODE1.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Chris.
Manual start for services is correct for a cluster. The cluster should
control the services on each node. Look at the applicaiotn logs on both
nodes. Check the failover/failback settings. You may be seeing a failback
condition due to different preferred node settings.
