Sophos Rename Question

Is it possible to rename a laptop that already has Sophos installed on it? Will it show in the console as the new machine name? What is the best practice for renaming machines with Sophos? Version SGN 8 used. Thanks for your time.

Hi - I've not found this to cause me any issues. I have AD sync'd too and it's not been an issue for the Sophos console once it's resync'd.

Hi Shawnton,

It should reflect the name obtained from Windows, so the name change in machine should reflect itself.
