SQL 2005 64 bits / 32 bits - Merge Replication

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi,

We have a merge pull replication environment with SQL2005 (SP1/SP2 - all
standard edition).

We are thinking on moving the publisher to a 64 Bit box. The plan is just to
call the new server the same way the old server and take a backups of the
database (publication database + distribution database) and restore it in
the new box.

We believe subscribers won't notice the difference; has anyone tried
something like that?

Any thought is appreciated... Thanks, José Araujo.
