Remote-server registration

Does MSDE support registering a (remote) sql-server.
I am trying to replicate between two computers on the Internet (both XP).
Is this a futile attempt ... must the publisher be a "full" instance of SQL
server?

MSDE 2000 can act as both a Publisher or Distributor, and a Subscriber, and it can replicate between MSDE versions and regular versions of SQL Server. Additionally, you cannot use it for transactional publication, but you can use it as a Publisher of snap
shot replication, and merge replication, and as a Subscriber to all three types of publications.
Looking for a SQL Server replication book?
