I want to clone 25 or so computers on a network, however I need them to have unique names. Is this possible? I have been able to clone them with ghost but I don't see anyway to make them unique names.

I always disable the network card, and on first boot, change the name and re-enable the cards. Works great.

Just don't set names for them. I believe that sysprep will allow you to force a prompt for a name after installing the image.

Both ideas sound like they will save a little time I'll give both ideas a shot. Another thought I just had is, would it be possible for a "server" to dole out names from a text file?
