MSDTC on server xx is unavailable

Hi:
We have 2 sql server(both sql2000) and using update/insert
triggers to replicate between the 2 servers. the
replication has been working and now We got this error
when doing an update:
ole/db provider returned message, new transaction cannot
enlist in the specified transaction coordinator. the
operation could not be performed because the oledb
provider 'sqloledb' was unable to begin a distributed
transaction.
So I restarted msdtc service on both sql servers, now when
running an update, I got msdtc on server
destinationservernm is unavailable, but both dtc services
are started. Any thoughts? thanks.Which OS version?
