I ran into a similar situation once, where I had to recreate an Exchange server but was told the wrong site and org names. I set up the server using the names I thought were correct, and, needless to say, it failed when the original edb files were placed on the server. However, I was able to figure out the correct names from the errors that appeared in event viewer, setup the server again, and get it to work.

If you search on "recover exchange site name" without the quotes, you get a bunch of useful information. Have you read the DR Whitepaper?

I have the *.edb files, but I don't khow the following - site name, organisation name and server name as the site did not document the server build. Is there any way of getting the exchange up and running so I can export the mailboxes to pst files.
