You should also notify cellser...@grand.central.org so that the
central CellServDB records can be updated. IIRC, at least windows
clients use the name after the '#' for address lookups -- it is not
just a comment field.
Thanks for that info. Does it matter whether the name is a CNAME or not?
I'm thinking that, to ease the transition, I could make the new name a
CNAME for the existing name, tell grand.central to change the cellservdb,
and later rename the machine.
