Does anyone have experience changing the server name that your WF/DM/MRE setup is hosted on?
I've found that BID now doesn't refer to the components correctly, so the usual "Error attaching to Reporting Server: EDASERVE" etc message comes up.
Any advice?
Thanks,

Used Grep for Windows (WinGrep.com) to find all instances of the old server name in the IBI directory. Changed those that weren't in a log/trace to the new server name. Restarted server (probably restarting WF would have been enough). All is well.

If you do not want to install a Unix utility on windows then use Ransack Agent (basic form, free ware)
Kicks the **** out of Microsoft search tools.

findstr is a built-in, and it is not terrible. understands regex (sort of) and gives context in output. Plus, you can always count on it being available, no matter the system/vendor.
