Changing Your Server’s Name
You can use Server Preferences to change the server’s computer name. This name
identies the server to users who are browsing for network le servers or other
network resources identied by computer name rather than by DNS name.
To change your server’s computer name:
In the Information pane of Server Preferences, edit the Computer Name eld. m
Specify a name that’s 63 Roman characters or fewer, including spaces. Avoid using =, :,
or @. (If a user’s computer connects to the server using the SMB le sharing protocol,
Mac OS X Server automatically converts the computer name to a form that’s valid
with SMB.)
