Changing the computer name of a thin client

Administrators can change the computer name of a thin client. The computer name information and the Terminal Services Client Access License (TSCAL) are preserved regardless of the Unified Write Filter state (enabled or disabled). This maintains the specific computer identity information and facilitates the image management of the thin client.

To change the computer name of a thin client device:
  1. Log in as an administrator.
  2. Go to Start > Control Panel > System . The System window is displayed.
  3. In the Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings section, click Change Settings. The System Properties dialog box is displayed.
  4. Click Change to rename the computer name.
  5. In the Computer Name window, type the name for the thin client device in the Computer name field, and click OK.
  6. In the Confirmation dialog box, click OK to restart for applying the changes.
  7. Click Close, and then click Restart Now to apply the changes.
