Ok, I have figured it out if anyone is interested.

There are two ways of making it work.

After you restore PUB1.EDB and PUB1.STM to an alternate server and mount the PF store, 
al the public folders will show up in Exchange System Manager. But you won't see them 
in Outlook yet. To make the visible in Outlook, do:

A. Create a new public top-level public folder on the alternate Exchange server. Then 
move one of the restored public folders into the new folder. Then right-click on the 
new folder and select All Tasks/Propagate Settings/Folder Rights. After it rips 
through, move the restored public folder back into the original location.

OR

B. Create a new public top-level public folder on the alternate Exchange server. Then 
COPY one of the restored public folders into the new folder. Delete the original 
restored public folder and move its copy from the new top level folder back to the 
original location.

If all you want to do is make sure the public folders live SOMEWHERE,
then you can import the recovered folders to PST and then import them
into your production AD. 

If you want them to go to their original homes, well, you may have to
wrestle with the Exchange 2000 version of Pfadmin.  

If that's the case, good luck.  I'll pay you dearly for whatever info
gets it to work.  ;)

Hi all.

I have restored an Exchange 2000 PF store to an alternate server. No
problems with the restoration process itself - the store mounted fine.

However the alternate server is in a different active directory. That
active directory does not have these public folders in the Microsoft
Exchange System Objects container.

Is there a way to populate the AD based on the contents of the PF store?
(like DS/IS Consistency Adjuster used to do back in Exchange 5.5)
