I am running SBS 2000 with Exchange 2000 server and run a nightly bacup of the Information Store and system state using the Windows 2000 backup program. I would like to restore the backup to an off-site server for disaster recovery and single mailbox recovery. Can I restore the Information Store to a different Exchange Server? If so, what is the procedure?

The exchange database can be restored on another server but the exchange name and version (including the patches) must be the same.

Microsoft tech article 813337 explains the method of restoring to a Recovery Server step by step.
