what kind of replication you are using? I have transactional replication here and normally stop the log & distributor agent both but for major break (longer duration) I simply disable & enable the replication itself.
The best thing would be to ask this question at http://www.replicationanswers.com/Default.asp
Alternatively, I can test this for you in the evening in the test environment and get back to you by tomorrow :hehe:
