I'm trying to install the 2007 management tools on my backup server, and
during the install it tells me the server name is invalid.
The server name is "server_sql"

How can i get past this message? I can't rename my server, it has SQL and
Backup Exec on it.

Have you found an answer for this yet? I am having the exact same
problem with an underscore in my server name.
