Discussion on:

Changing the name of your SQL Server

Thank you. Do you have any idea if it is necessary and possible to also change the local user group names and the server permissions.

I.e, I have renamed my server from db to db01.
The server permissions are still set to:
db\SQLServer2005MSFTE$db$MSSQLSERVER
db\SQLServer2005MSSQLUser$db$MSSQLSERVER
db\SQLServer2005SQLAgentUser$db$MSSQLSERVER

I do not know how to change these.

The local security groups are still set to
SQLServer2005MSFTEUser$db$MSSQLSERVER
SQLServer2005MSSQLServerADHelperUser$db
SQLServer2005MSSQLUser$db$MSSQLSERVER
SQLServer2005NotificationServicesUser$db
SQLServer2005SQLAgentUser$db$MSSQLSERVER
SQLServer2005SQLBrowserUser$db

I can change these but is all this renaming necessary?

hi....thanx man...!!!:)
