    Hey All

    I have an xserve (10.5.8) and want to set up a computers workgroup for controlling printers and desktops in certain classrooms.

    I have managed to set up the groups and set the pref settings, but I cant add the Macs to the group.

    The Macs I want to add were rebuilt over the summer break and have been moved and renamed. When I move them from my LDAPv3 Directory into the group the old computer name pops up. I guess the old names are being held on the Server and linked to the MAC addresses.

    Is there a command or way to resync the DNS from my Windows DNS server. I have tried a DNS cache flush but that doesnt work. I assume it is a DNS issue as the name is not qualifying correctly.

    I am a bit of a newbie on Macs so please be gentle 🙂 Really hope someone can help.
