Win2k Server name on network

[patrickj]

OK, I have tried to find this but cant...

On a Windows NT 4 Server, you can go Start > Settings > Control Panel > Server > Description, and enter the server description. This is the comment that a user would see after the server name when browsing the network. Where do you do this with a Win2k server? I have looked everywhere and can't seem to find it. It is not Network Description after doing a right click on Network Neighborhood. I have also looked in control panel > system or network and dial-up connections. I also looked in control panel > administrative settings. I am out of ideas at this point.

Thanks...

Right click on "My Computer" and click on "Properties", then click on "Network Identification"

Try re-reading the post....I'm not trying to name the server. I want to put a description in the network properties area.

Next?

Right mouse button click on "My Computer". Choose "Manage" from the menu. Computer Management will open. From there choose "properties" from the "Action" menu. Click on the "Network Identification" tab. Enter whatever text you want in the "Description" box.
