Database Replication SQL 2000

I have two SQL 2000 servers. I want to make the primary and one the
secondary. I want to databases to stay replicated. If the Primary goes down
the Secondary would be used while we fix the Primary. Once the the Primary
is fixed it would be brought back online and the Secondary would replicate
it's data to the Primary. Then they would be in sync again.
What are my options here? What is the recomended way to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Scott
Scott,
there are many threads (and opinions!) on this sort of thing over the last
few months. I would recommend looking at queued updating subscribers
provided you aren't using BLOB datatypes.
