When attempting to view a SQL Replication publication, I receive the message:

"SQL Server does not support nicknames, such as "." or "(local)", as server names.

Delete the SQL Server registration for this server and register it using the actual server name.

While TERM SERVED on to this SQL Server, Can I actually DELETE the registration, and re-Register the SQL Server without doing harm to the existing SQL Server?
