Erro 14040: The server "ServerB" is already a Subscriber

Hello.
I'm trying to create a Push subscription from ServerA to ServerB and am
getting the above message. I am using Enterprise Manager to do this.
ServerB already subscribes to a publication from ServerC.
I noticed that the error occurs on the first step of the "Completing the
Push Subscription Wizard", the one labelled "Enabling this server as a
subscriber" (for ServerB). Makes sense since ServerB would have already been
enabled because of the existing subscription to the publication on ServerC.
Is there a way to tell EM not to enable ServerB for subscriptions, or can
ServerB only subscribe to only one other server?
I'm running SQL 2000 SP3a.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
can you do this query and post the results back here?
select sub, srvname from sysservers where srvname='serverb'
Also check to see if ServerB is an enabled Subscriber. If so, uncheck/check
the check box and see if you get an error message.
