    More than one name on a server


    If you for some reason need to have more than one computer-name on a server it can not be done in the GUI. It has to be done in regedit.

    1)
    Find this location:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters

    2)
    Add a new key here with the name: OptionalNames with the type: REG_MULTI_SZ

    Type in the server names you want as the value. Separate more than one name with a space.

    3)
    Restart the server.
