We are a puny 150 PC house so we do use usernames in the PC name for ease in remote control. We rebuild each PC when an employee leaves or annually to keep the PC's "clean".

What happens when that employee quits? You have to rename their machine as part of setting up a new user? I would use City_Dept_JobFunction then add a number for multiple job functions.

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2001 12:05 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Workstation Naming Standards hi, we will be deploying Win2K from scratch on the user's machines (around 700) replacing NT 4. SO I was reviewing our machine naming convention. Our Offices are located in two cities, one single domain. So far we would use something like "CityName-Department-User Real Name" (where city name and department are abbrevations) to name workstations. Usually the NT Names are the users Company ID, which is unique. I was wondering how you guys/girls are naming your workstations and users. regards Uso Want to unsub?
