By default the updates from the subscriber to the publisheh are made using the sa account with no password. Since this is not the normal configuration the updates fail.
om/kb/3207 73
So you have to use the sp_link_publication to set the login information for the subscriber to connect to the publisher. The procedure is pretty self-explanatory so look at the syntax in Books on Line and basically fill in the blanks. You run the procedure in the Query Analyzer in the subscription database.
I cannot tell you what parameters to use for the procedure because I do not know your environment
