Compressed Snapshot Files!

Hello All,
I'm using Transactional Replication. I have compress snapshot file now I
want to configure it on Subscriber.
I saw BOL and it says,
1. In Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Manager, expand the subscription
database and the Subscriptions directory, right- click a subscription,
and then click Properties.
but didnt find the Subscription directory under subscription database.
How can I configure?
Thanks in advance.
Naveed.
the snapshot files will be compressed in the cab format in your alternate
snapshot folder. If you are doing a pull subscription you have the option to
applying the snapshot (compressed or uncompressed) from an alternate
location by using the "Use snapshot files from the following folder option."
You will have to prove a path to the root of the snapshot location, ie
\\PublisherServerName\Share\ where this will map to c:\temp or wherever you
place your files in. If you copy these files locally you have to copy the
directory structure from unc on, ie if you place the files in c:\temp you
would copy the contents of unc to c:\temp.

|||Hello Hilary!!!
Thanks for your reply, You gave solution for Pull Subscription But We are
using Push Subscription and we have very slow connection for publishing data
on subscriber, i.e why we compress snapshot file in alternate location and
now we want to configure it on subscriber.
How to do that?
Thanks,
Naveed.

|||use the -AltSnapshotFolder switch on your distribution agent. make sure you
uncheck the generate snapshot in the default folder location for your
snapshot properties.
