were not trying to follow DNS standards. What I don't think is correct is that
you can't go from an _ in the name, use DMA to export the information and then
change then name during the upgrade process. I think this was a TAC person that
didn't do enough research and an engineer that just accepted what the TAC
person said as gospel. I would like to see something that says you can't
upgrade if you have a _ in the computer name. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
