windows key + pause key,
click computer name,
click change.
Restart PC
there may be a better way without having to restart but I haven't found it yet. For those who do not find the pause key: it has the same effect as right click on "My Computer" and choosing properties.

I do not understand the last portion of your question. I am hoping that you have a dedicated Windows System Administrator to setup this network for you, AND and that servers will be local within this network. If the servers will be scattered geologically please note there might be firewall issues, you will need to change this on the appropriate network hardware. First start by creating the domain, you will be able to do this within active directory, the change the servers to the domain via Computer > Properties > Computer Name, you will need to make a computer placeholder within active directory for each additional computer/user you add tot he domain. Please reply back with questions and clarification on your question, we will be able to assist you further. Thank you! Shaun B. Nuphonicblue at Gmail
Windows is a brand name. Windows Server 2003 is a product in that brand.
How do you change name of Start Menu in Windows
Name the NetBIOS names you might expect from a Windows 2003 DC that is registered in WINS.
ntds.dit
Pagefile.sys
pagefile.sys
Legacy operating systems continue to use NetBIOS for name resolution to find a domain controller; however it is recommended that you point all computers to the Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 DNS server for name resolution.
go to your domain control panel rom there go to settings and change name servers
It is a variable placeholder for the user name in a computer (%username%).
you just click on the servers name
Windows XP and Windows 2003 came before Windows Vista. The 64-bit version of XP was really mostly Windows 2003 branded as XP, and not truly XP, despite the name.
