Gerald,

Do you mean adding it to the hosts table on the clients?

I don't really want to go to every machine and manually change their hosts
table if I can help it. There must be something I'm missing that would do
the same thing, perhaps on my WINS server or my WinNT domain controller. If
that's where I need to look then I'll pursue that.

Thanks,
Gary
