Re: Renaming a server



Yes it is but because the computer name is not case sensitive you're really
not changing the name by going from uppercase to lower case or visa versa.
You need to rename it to something different. then come back and rename it
back using lowercase.

For app licensing reasons (don't ask).....

I need to rename my server to a lowercase name - I do - but when it
reboots
(and I type hostname at the command prompt) it is in Uppercase again

Is it possible to rename a server to a lower case name?
