Could not allocate space for object 'MSrepl_commands' in database

We have transaction replication set up in SQL 2K environment . It's simple
SQL 2k publisher to SQL 2K subscriber (both Enterprise). It works fine but
some times(once a week or so) we get error message "Could not allocate space
for object 'MSrepl_commands' in database 'zzzz_distribution' " and log reader
agent gets stopped. I don't see any issues with space and both data and log
files are set for auto grow. When I go back and see DB size is very minimal.
Can you throw some ideas.
Thanks,
Prabhu
This looks like a problem with the distribution database being unable to
grow, can you confirm that the distribution database has space to grow, and
the growth increment is not a percent but a fixed amount like 100 Mgs.
