Script it out and change anywhere the servername appears to the new name, then run it on the box.. |

If you want a "quick and dirty" - add a server alias in the client configuration with the old server name but pointing to the new server IP\instance. Will also make it easier to change if they decide to change it again, which if they did it once, they will do it again. |
