If you have your workstations listed in a text file, then you just need
a simple "for /f" command using NETDOM with the "renamecomputer"
operator. The workstations have to be powered up and on the network
first, and they will have to be rebooted after the change.

I need to rename all of our workstations to adhere to a new naming
standard. These machines, for now, will remain in the same domain. I
have found various scripts on Google, but I would like to hear from
someone that has done this. Any pitfalls?

 

Thanks
