NAV 7.5 parent server rename 1

[skibascott]

I am about to change the computer name of our parent server. When this has been completed will I need to update the clients in order for them to connect to this parent server. Only the computer name and possibly the ip address of this server is changing.

If I do have to update the clients will the instructions in this article work:

These instructions specify versions 8.x and 9.x and I am running 7.5.

I know that copying the GRC.dat file to the clients will work on 7.5 (I've done it). Not sure about other methods.

Thanks for the reply LawnBoy. I also just found this document on the symantec website that shows how to restore communications between client and server after renaming the parent server.
