Error 627:Cannot use SAVE TRANSACTION within a distributed transac

Information:
SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition
Server Pack 3a
Server Edition is Windows 2000 Advanced Server
Replication Type is Transactional
I am trying to drop a publication. I am getting the error:
Error 627:Cannot use SAVE TRANSACTION within a distributed transaction
This error also is generated when trying to drop the individual subscription.
Can anyone provide insight as to what could be causing this error?
Thank you in advance.
Robert M.Check the "remote proc trans" value from sp_configure. If it's 1, you need
to change it to 0.

touch the values on publisher or distributor.
