You don't need to setup lotus notes in the same path. Lotus notes looks for its data relative to the notes data directory. So if on one pc you have c:\notes\data which contains names.nsf, a_archive.nsf and on another pc you have c:\program files\lotus\notes\data, it would be the same for lotus notes as long as names.nsf, a_archive are in the data directory
Copy over names.nsf, jornal.nsf (if you have one) and any other *.nsf files you might have over keeping the same directory structure related to Notes data directory
