Cloning CF, EWF and "A duplicate name exist on the network" APSFlorida 12.07.2007 15:42:04 I have a completely functional Image on CF using RAM EWF. I can clone the image and it is fully functional, But if I run 2 or more devices on the same network segment (ie, LAN not WAN), I get the error: "A duplicate name exist on the network", which is correct, I have 2 or more with the same name. I have included the System Cloning Tool but I do not believe it is being used, or it is not configured correctly. SO... The questions is what am I supposed to do to prevent the duplicate Names? Do I have to run "fbreseal.exe", then duplicate the CF? Will this provide a unique name on each unit when they restart? Regards, Aaron

Aaron, If you dont need them - we disable the "Server", "Workstation", and "Computer Browser" services. This seems to elminate this error as a side effect.

Re: Cloning CF, EWF and "A duplicate name exist on the network" "Robin Hickmott" <robin[ at ]willowsv.com> 13.07.2007 09:16:46 Well it sounds like you need to reseal your image the system cloning tool workd on uninstalled images as a last step once it has been setup to reseal and change the SID the network ID and computer name are assgined dynamically on restart. Set up your image and copy fbreseal.exe from your repository to to your image boot up and run it. This then reseals the image and you can copy it to your other devices.
