I am getting an error while running forest prep.

-Setup has determined the display name of the organization or one of the Exchange sites in your Organization is greater than 64 characters or contains one of the following invalid characters:~!@#$%^&*()_+ including a leading / trailing space...

I checked in the Exchange administrator and found the names to be fine. The only place I use the invalid characters are in front of some user names and groups so they show up at the top of the list, Could this cause the error?

When I look at the Exchange Server Setup Log on my mail server the first line that has the names on it reads...

Modifying object at /o=my store/ou=mystorecorp.COM/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=juno

This mustbe from the old 5.0, could the space between My and Store in the o= be causing the error? Farther down in the setup log is the correct names how I named them in 5.5 ...

Modifying object at /o=mystore/ou=mystore.COM/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=juno

Where does the forest prep look to find these names? This is the only place that I found anything that could cause the error.
