Hello all,
I'm setting merge replication of MS SQL Server 7.0 servers to use FTP through
firewall. The publisher and distributor are protected with a proxying machine,
and a subscriber is in the Internet.
I have two questions about that, 1) do I need to enable something else than FTP
to pass through the firewall?
2) I'm afraid some problems may appear if I'll try upload changes from the
subscriber to the publisher. The problem is that the subscriber knows only IP
address of proxy host, not of the machine behind the host (it may have fake IP,
by the way). Is it possible to set the firewall to reroute packets to the
publisher? Say, I'll set the pair of ports for "SQL designated" FTP other than
20/21.

I'll be grateful even if somebody gives me a link to info about those issues.
There's too little of info in MS documentation.
Kindest regards,
