multiple RDP windows

[Young Grasshopper]

i work in a data center and here we connect to all of our client servers via public ip addresses thru RDP. sometimes i can have 15-20 windows open at once. does anyone know of a utility that will let me put a name in the rdp window instead of an ip address? for example if i connect to a sever with an ip of 67.122.11.93, id like for it to show up as 'client - server name' in my taskbar instead of just an ip address.


thanks

Have you tried using the MMC snap-in for Remote Desktop that comes with the Windows 2003 Admin Pack?

If DNS is set up correctly, if you just enter the name of the machine it should work just fine.

Not sure if it would work in your situation, but couldn't you edit your hosts file to add a name for each of the IP addresses? Then you could just connect to each using the name in RDP.

This is what I do at home.
