Remarks
If the value is set to DB_AUTHENTICATION (the default), DistributorLogin and DistributorPassword are used when connecting to the Distributor. If the value is NT_AUTHENTICATION, the Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) Windows user account is used when connecting to the Distributor.
If no Distributor connection property is specified, it is assumed the Publisher and Distributor are on the same instance of SQL Server, and the Publisher connection properties are used when connecting to the Distributor. However, if you set any one of the Distributor connection properties, you must set all of the required Distributor properties.
