Remotely change computer names in domain

[Guest]

I would like to know how to use Hyena to change the name of computers in my domain. I have a certain naming convention that allows me to know the location of a computer by it's name. When a computer gets physically moved to a new location I would like to connect to it remotely and change it's name. Currently I have to VNC to it, logon and change it this way. To slow and tedious. I am a Domain admin with admin rights on all the pc's in my domain.

Thanks

The way you are doing this with VNC would be your only option other than scripting something to make the changes.

Well then...does anyone already have a script they are using with Hyena to accomplish this task? I don't want to have to reinvent the wheel. Anyone know of a third party app that will allow me to do this?

The only utility that I know of that has this capability is Netdom from the Microsoft resource kit.
