Is there an error in Help ?

Hello
I've found something like that in SqlServer2000 help:
"How to synchronize push subscriptions with alternate synchronization
partners (Enterprise Manager)
1.. On the Subscriber, expand the Replication Monitor and Agents
directories, select the Merge Agents directory, right-click the publication,
and then click Agent Properties.
2.. On the Steps tab, double-click the subscription agent step, and add
the -SyncToAlternate switch in the Command text box.
"
My Megre Agents directory is empty ! At the publisher there are some
publications in it.
I'm using Merge replication and I wanted to protect this replication if my
default publisher would go off-line.
Have I made some mistake or help is wrong ? Can this be done by some other
way ?
Best Regards

right click on the merge agents folder. Is show anonymous agents selected?
If not select it.
Do they show up now?

|||I have seen cases where you deploy a publication via a script from one
database to another on the same server and don't modify the merge agent or
snapshot agent name, and this causes the agents not to show up in the
publisher.
If this is the case, script our your publication, drop it, rename the
publication and change the snapshot and merge agent names and run the script
again.
