Replication With Multiple Server With The Same Server Name

hey all,

I have been testing SQL merge replication out for the last few weeks and it looks as if it will work for my company. However, I have a couple of question.

the setup:
1) we have multiple servers in the field all using the same server name with different IPs and different workgroups
2) Publisher = SQL 2005 SP2
3) Subscribers = SQLexpress SP2
4) Merge pull scriptions for all subscribers
5) Suser_Sname() used as filter

My questions:

1) Can all the subscribing servers access the same subscription at the publisher with out screwing up the generation table?
2) Is there any way to have a subscribing server point to a particular subscription at the publisher?

I've tried setting up an alies on a subscriber but the sp_addmergepullsubscription_agent will no longer accept subscription parameters.

Thanks in advances for any and all help.
