We have a different display name to the directory name, and when doing the
restore like you say use the directory name of the site/org when installing
Exchange.  Just check afterwoods to see if it's restored the display name
(Can't remember if does get restored or not).

Haven't seen any side effects of doing this.

Subject: site name implications


Ladies and gentlemen,

I have been called in to do a disaster recovery and have found that the site
name and the directory name are different.

The question I would like to ask is what are the ramifications of this.  I
found one whilst doing a restore - the directory name has to be used not the
site name.

Are there any more little beauties waiting for me?

We are using Exchange 5.5 sp3 with NT4 sp6a with 9 sites in one
organisation.

Thanks in advance.

Geoff Robbins
