I want to consolidate them to a single server, but I wouldn't mind keeping the server names the same to keep everything looking the same for the end users. My simplistic example: Server1 with 'drivers' and 'scratch' share Server2 with 'apps' share. I want to make a single server that will respond weather you go to \\server1\drivers<file:///\\server1\drivers> or \\server2\apps<file:///\\server2\apps>. There are no collisions in the share namespaces. I could make the server a single windows PC, and enter the DNS entry for both of them to point to the same system. Would that be sufficient? --Matt Ross Ephrata School District
