How can i deal with duplicate netbios names

Recommended Posts

I am managing clients using PKI over HTTPS. the problem i am facing is that some clients although on seperate domains or workgroups may have the same netbios(hostname). because of this they fight for a space within SCCM admin console, and invariably do not appear.

 

e.g

CLIENT1 - netbios name (DOMAIN)

CLIENT2 - netbios name (DOMAIN)

 

both are completly different (GUID, MAC, IP, DOMAIN or WORKGROUP) but have problems co-existing.

 

what is the solution? i cannot rename the hosts, and why cannot they co-exist if all other data is different...

OK, although that doesn't make sense because i have for example (EXCHANGE), 4 instances appearing under "All Systems" all with different GUID, IP, MAC, SID, ID etc.. except Name. along with this i have (DOMAIN, SHARE) which appear more than once. The setup is purely over HTTPS (internet).
