Help! I want 2 names on my NT server. Or another way of solv
This is a discussion about Help! I want 2 names on my NT server. Or another way of solv in the Windows Networking category; OK, so here's the problem: We have our main file server called JON01S. It was our first ever server that started out life as a 486 and was then upgraded to a Pentium Pro. I now have a lovely new server which is a dual processor PIII 800 but want the name to be BUKNT001 to fit in with our naming convention.
OK, so here's the problem:
We have our main file server called JON01S. It was our first ever server that started out life as a 486 and was then upgraded to a Pentium Pro.
I now have a lovely new server which is a dual processor PIII 800 but want the name to be BUKNT001 to fit in with our naming convention.
In the old server we have various shares across various drives (ie; \\jon01s\marketng) and in the new one we have one big Ultra160 37Gb drive.
I want to transfer the data from one machine to the other as smoothly as possible. Bear in mind that we have around 250 internal users and 80 external ones - we only see the external ones once every blue moon.
Is there any way that I can have a shared area on the new server called \\buknt001\marketng BUT, any machine looking for \\jon01s\marketng will also be directed to this area?
From this you should get a fair idea of what I'm after, so if anyone has any suggestions for other ways around the problem, please let me know!
Thanks,
Gav
