You would use SMTP if you had an unreliable connection or a slow connection where RPC traffic would drop. Also, if replication wasn't required to be timely.
RPC traffic is highly effected by latency. SMTP replication would work better on slower or unstable link since SMTP doesn't care about latency, if it fails it will just retry. This is a very basic description on why you would use one over the other. Regards, Dave -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Salandra, Justin A.

What is the different between an IP Inter-Site Transports and a SMTP Inter-Site Transports? When would you use the SMTP one? Justin A.
