Hi everyone,

I want to install 2 sql server in development machine. one is default server and another one is instance.
e.g.
default server: dev
another instance: dev\server

now the network name of default server is 'server'. I want to change its network name and server name. How can I do this?

cheers

You can use a DNS alias, or make an alias per client using cliconfg.exe.
