Changing computer name

KyleHunt

What's the best way to label computers something other than their computer name BEFORE you install the product...or quickly/easily after?  We support a bunch of POS servers that all have the same computer name so naming them something other than "POSSRV"  is essential

    I tried that and it didn't work :(  But there were enough inconsistencies in the instructions vs what I saw, that I'm not 100% confident I did it right.  Other ideas?

    It looks like you're putting it under the wrong key.  You have it under "Remote Management System".

    You need to create a key under Sophos called "Management Communications System"...

    • 32-bit: HKLM\Sophos\Management Communications System\
    • 64-bit: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Sophos\Management Communications System\
      Note: If the above key does not exist please create it.

    Regards,
