Changing the Name of the Interplay Streaming
Server
If you change the computer name of the Interplay Streaming Server, you need to change the
name in the Server Hostname Settings view in the Interplay Administrator.
To rename an Interplay Streaming Server:
1. Open the Interplay Administrator and log in to the Interplay Engine server for the
workgroup that includes the Interplay Streaming Server.
2. In the Site Settings section, click the Server Hostname Settings icon.
The Server Hostname Settings view opens.
3. In the Streaming Server Settings area, click the Rename button.
The Rename Streaming Server and Share dialog box opens.
4. Type the computer name of the system that is now running the Interplay Streaming Server.
You do not have to type \\ before the name of the server.
5. Click OK.
The computer name is displayed in the Server Hostname Settings view.

The share name listed does not apply to the Interplay Streaming Server v2.4 and later (it was
used in the Interplay Stream Server v2.3 and earlier). The installer for the Interplay Streaming
Server v2.4 or later does not create this share. However, the share name is still listed and you
cannot remove it.
Changing the Name of the Streaming Server
Execution User
You might need to change the name of the Streaming Server Execution User. There are two
methods, depending on the exact problem.

and reinstall the Interplay Streaming Server with the correct user, because in this case the
Interplay Streaming Server service is not added to the Windows Services list. For information
about uninstalling and reinstalling the Interplay Streaming Server, see the Avid Interplay
Software Installation and Configuration Guide.
If the Streaming Server was correctly installed, but the Streaming Server Execution User is no
longer available or needs to be changed for any reason, you can change the name and password
in the Log On tab of the Streaming Server service:
