Modify Active Directory Schema Attribut Display Names

Ok,

In our organization, we want to modify the use of the "Pager" field
that shows up when you view a user's information through Active
Directory Users and Computers. We would like to rename that field to
say something else. How can I do this? From what I have seen, I think
it might work if I change the "lDAPDisplayName" value for the "pager"
attribute. I am hesitant to try this, though, as we do not have a test
environment, and I am not very familiar with Active Directory Schema.
I don't want to end up breaking anything, but want to get this changed
ASAP. Can anybody provide some information about this?

Thanks!
