Can anyone point me to a VBScript that I could push out using a Symantec product that would:
1) Query the machine SN
2) Copy that result
3) Change Computer Name to the SN (non-domain pc's on a workgroup)
4) Cleanup whatever is left behind.

I am not a scripter so thought i'd post the question here..

Hi,

are you limited to just VBscript, or can you also use powershell? Eitherway you can get this doen, there are freeware utilities to do the rename, but let me knowif your can use powershell vs vbscript.
www.computerperformance.uk is a good vb site to assist as well,.
