It's not supported, it doesn't work, start over from scratch and migrate if you really want to change things... /Deja Vu On Wed, Sep 15, 2010 at 7:53 AM, Brumbaugh, Luke <luke.brumba...@butlerschein.com<mailto:luke.brumba...@butlerschein.com>> wrote: My company has changed names several times. My boss and I have been asked to change the netbios domain name so that it matches. We want to go one better to rename the domain to a generic domain name, so that if and when the company changes names again, we won't have to go through this again. We have an exchange 2007 system, with 2 mail servers and 2 hubs. What are my options to rename the exchange server? Do I have to rebuild? TIA Luke L.
