Greeting Peter and the list,

While looking something else (on this site :
http://www.cgfiles.com/tutorials/unattended/index.html) I found this guy
 using a utility called WSNAME to manage the names of computers.

Using a statement like this :

  wsname /RDF:"z:\SCRIPTS\compnames.txt" /DFK:$MAC

and a text file  looking like this :
  0007E963EC42 = ANIM01
  0007E9646643 = ANIM02
  0013D4440A96 = DIGI01

You can ensure that each computer gets it's own unique name.

The application can be found here :
