MSDE - Cluster Aware

Hi
Can anyone tell me if there are any problems associated with installing MSDE
2000 on a cluster? Or even if it is possible in the first place?

Clustering is supported with Enterprise Edition only. Check the "Choosing an
Edition of SQL Server 2000" whitepaper at
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/techinfo/planning/SQLResKChooseEd.asp.

So if I just install MSDE 2000 by itself then it is not cluster aware? I
read the white paper but it's not really clear.
Could you also tell me if merge replication will work with MSDE 2000 as all
the articles I have read so far only seem to suggest it will work for a
subscriber and not as a publisher.
Thanks

No, it is not cluster aware.

Merge replication is supported entirely, while tansactional replication
works if MSDE is subscriber only.
