◦
The maximum length for a computer name is 63 bytes. If the name is longer than 15
bytes (15 characters in most languages, 7 characters in some), computers that are
running Windows NT 4.0 and earlier will recognize this computer by the first 15 bytes
of the name only. In addition, there are additional configuration steps for a name that
is longer than 15 bytes.
◦
If a computer is a member of a domain, you must choose a computer name that differs
from any other computer in the domain. To avoid name conflicts, the computer name
should be unique on the domain, workgroup, or network.
In a Windows Active Directory Domain, passwords and permissions for computer objects
and user accounts are easier to manage due to being stored in a centralized database that
is replicated among the domain controllers.
To name the computer and join it to a domain, click Provide computer name and domain
in the Initial Configuration Tasks window and then click Change on the Computer Name
tab.
