Edit Computer Names List

The Computer Names list is a persistent list of computers in your organization. Computer Names can be edited manually Edit-Edit Computer List or added by searching the network Edit-Search Network.

The format of the list is:

DOMAIN\ComputerName IP:IPADDRESS Any additional Comments

Where, DOMAIN is optional -- anything before the Computer Name is treated as a domain name and is ignored. Anything after the first space is considered a comment. When using the 'Lookup IP Addresses' option on the Operations tab, the IP Address will be entered after the first space and before any other comments. The length limit on items in the computer names box is 255 characters. The advantage to all of the comment options is the ability to right click and Group Select or Group Deselect items based on the text in the list. For example, you could have an entries like:

DOM\MANNY IP:111.111.111.111 accounting superuser Smith PII-333
DOM\MORTY IP:111.111.111.112 manufacturing Wright PII-266
DOM\HOWARD IP:111.111.111.113 accounting printserver Howie P-200
DOM\IDAA IP:111.111.111.114 manufacturing printserver Arnie PII-400
DOM\BLAISE IP:111.111.111.115 accounting superuser Willie DX-400


When you right click in the Computer Names Window, select Group Select and enter 'printserver', only Howard and Idaa would be selected.

Alternatively, you can enter (manually) the fully qualified domain name or the IP address for the computer name portion of the text.

You can expand the view to show more information by selecting Edit-Expand Window.

The Computer Names list will remember your selections from session to session, and has options to temporarily remember a set of selections and to save and restore selections from permanent groups.
