I can easily do a mass replace to update all of the links but when I do a search, I found several instances of the un-qualified name in the _vti_cnf folder. Should I also change the name in the files in this directory? It would be much easier to replace all instances including the ones in the _vti folders if that will work. Thanks.

I am going to assume here that you are doing a find and replace on your production server. I would do it local on the machine that has the FP web on it. Then publish the changes. This will update the file in the _vti folders. Take care, Brian _____________________________ (in reply to jleeper)
