I know I can uninstall v3 and start over with the upgrade, but I
would, of course, prefer not to.

Is there any way to change the URL that v3 redirect un-upgraded sites
to? I screwed up the host header during set up and there seems to be
no way to go back. If I change the host header in IIS Manager, I see
it change on the gradual upgrade progress page, but the redirects no
longer work.

Is this a field in the DB someplace? Some setting I can twiddle in
the admin console?

Thanks,
Steve

Nevermind...answered my own question.

The URL's are stored in the "SiteMap" table in the config DB. Now to
write a SQL query to update these in bulk...

Microsoft strongly recommend against making changes direct to the database.

In fact they are unlikely to support you with any problem with your
installation after you have done so.

Changes that occur in the database after the use of code using *the
SharePoint API* to amend the SharePoint system are OK, though.
