Database Roles being modified by unknown process

I have two databases on two separate servers, with Merge replication running
between them. DB1 and DB2 both have the same 3 roles I created for user
access. Twice within the last week, the roles on DB2, the subscriber, have
changed removing most of their table permissions, but not all. Does anyone
know of something that could be causing this?
Thanks

all other commands and procedures. Check the "Security Audit Event Classes"

Database refresh question

There's a sql server 2000 database that was created as a copy of another db, let's say db1 and copy_of_db1. db1 has been updated (structure and data) since copy_of_db1 was created, while copy_of_db1 has remained static. I now need to update copy_of_db1 to be in sync with db1 and use copy_of_db1 so I can drop db1. What would be the fastest and most efficient way to update copy_of_db1 to mirror the current db1?

Backup the updated one and restore it, in the Backup and restore wizard choose the restore from device option you also have the option to change the name of the restored one. Hope this helps.
