Network Alias Description
Network Alias is a simple command line tool that will display, add or remove NetBIOS names for the Server service. This allows a computer to be accessed using an alias, or a name other than the computer name. The Server service will also announce this alias to the browse list where it will be displayed in apps such as My Network Places and the NET VIEW command.
After a system restart, this alias will no longer exist. To make the alias
persistent, this tool would need to be scheduled to execute at system startup.
This alias will only be available as a UNC path (servershare), tools like
ping and nslookup will not be able to resolve it.
NOTE:
The new name may not appear in the browse list immediately, it may take up to 48 minutes, depending on the complexity of your network. Likewise, names removed from the network are not immediately removed from the browse list, it may take up to 72 minutes.
Requirements:
ï¿ NetBIOS must be enabled, and the Server service must be running
ï¿ File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks must be bound to each NIC
