SQL 2005 Mirroring a Publisher in Replication

[Soiboy]

I have a Publisher database which is also a Distributor.
I want to initiate a mirroring session with this box as the Principle and with the mirror on a separate box.

In the case of a failure of the Publisher/Distributor box, the mirror will take over of new Principle of the mirroring session, but will it take over the Publisher/Distributor role as well?

Can I continue to have the Distributor be on the Publisher box or must I separate them?

thanks,

Ed

Wow, that's a good question. I don't think anyone has actually tried this out yet.

Do you have a test environment which you could establish this and deliberate take down the principal?
