When possible, prompt users to enter security credentials at run time. If you must store credentials, use the cryptographic services provided by the Windows .NET Framework.

Notes

The DistributorInstalled property must be true to set this property.

The ChangeDistributorPassword method can be called by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Distributor.

The ChangeDistributorPassword method is equivalent to the sp_changedistributor_password (Transact-SQL) stored procedure.

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the .NET Framework.

Exemple

// Set the Distributor and distribution database names.
string distributionDbName = "distribution";
string distributorName = publisherInstance;

ReplicationServer distributor;
DistributionDatabase distributionDb;

// Create a connection to the Distributor using Windows Authentication.
ServerConnection conn = new ServerConnection(distributorName);

try
{
    // Open the connection. 
    conn.Connect();

    distributor = new ReplicationServer(conn);

    // Load Distributor properties, if it is installed.
    if (distributor.LoadProperties())
    {
        // Password supplied at runtime.
        distributor.ChangeDistributorPassword(password);
        distributor.AgentCheckupInterval = 5;

        // Save changes to the Distributor properties.
        distributor.CommitPropertyChanges();
    }
    else
    {
        throw new ApplicationException(
            String.Format("{0} is not a Distributor.", publisherInstance));
    }

    // Create an object for the distribution database 
    // using the open Distributor connection.
    distributionDb = new DistributionDatabase(distributionDbName, conn);

    // Change distribution database properties.
    if (distributionDb.LoadProperties())
    {
        // Change maximum retention period to 48 hours and history retention 
        // period to 24 hours.
        distributionDb.MaxDistributionRetention = 48;
        distributionDb.HistoryRetention = 24;

        // Save changes to the distribution database properties.
        distributionDb.CommitPropertyChanges();
    }
    else
    {
        // Do something here if the distribution database does not exist.
    }
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    // Implement the appropriate error handling here. 
    throw new ApplicationException("An error occured when changing Distributor " +
        " or distribution database properties.", ex);
}
finally
{
    conn.Disconnect();
}
