Bidirectional Replication In SQL Server 2005 SP2

Hi,

I have a problem configuring Bidirectional replication in SQL Server 2005 SP2. I configured Publication and Subscription on two different SQL 2005 instances on different machines (Station1SQL2005 and Station2SQL2005 respectively). Databases are DBTest1 in Station1 and DBTest2 in Station2. I have two tables one in DBTest1 and the other in DBTest2.

Script for the above configuration:

This below configuration does not work if i configure Publication and Subscription on the same machines

For Station1:
IF EXISTS(SELECT * FROM sys.databases WHERE name = 'dbtest1')
DROP DATABASE dbtest1;

CREATE DATABASE dbtest1
go

--Create table named two_way_dbtest1 that have an IDENTITY column with the NOT FOR REPLICATION option set
USE dbtest1
go

IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sysobjects WHERE name LIKE 'two_way_dbtest1')
DROP TABLE two_way_dbtest1;
GO

CREATE TABLE two_way_dbtest1
(
pkcol INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
intcol INTEGER IDENTITY(1,1) NOT FOR REPLICATION,
charcol CHAR(100),
timestampcol TIMESTAMP
)


/*Allocate a predetermined range of values to the primary key column
so that the values on the different servers are not in the same range.
For example, you can enforce 1-1000 as the key range for the two_way_dbtest1 table in the dbtest1 database,
and then enforce 1001 -2000 as the key range for two_way_dbtest2 table in the dbtest2 database.
To do so, use the following code:

It would be grateful if somebody gives me a solution.

Thanks in advance.
