I'm still pretty new at some of this replication stuff. But I went and
pinged the subscriber from the publisher and vice versa. Then I set up
Aliases through the configuration tool using TCP\IP and setting the alias
name equal to that of the Server (i.e. My local server: S-HUNLEY). I don't
know if this is helpful, but it sounds like to me that your servers just
can't see one another and an alias, using TCP/IP or even a linkedserver may
help.
Good Luck!!

that's a good sign. Now, in the Configuration Tool:
1. Right-Click the Alias node on the tree.
2. Enter the Name of the server you are communicating with (make sure these
are exactly the same.
3. Enter a port number, by default SQL uses 1433
4. choose TCP/IP
5. Enter the IP address of the server your communication with.
That should give you a way of communicating to the server.
Try that and let me know.

I got past this error by going into the properties for the publication and
adding my IUSR_MACHINENAME account to the publication access list. It started
working like a champ. This is with SQL 2005, I'm not sure of how to do it
with SQL 2000.
Hope this helps.
