Tom,
There is a few ways to change device name:
1. TD: Standard PC or ACPI component, Settings, System Identification.
2. On target device (GUI): System Properties (My Computer-->Properties),
Computer Name page.
3. On target device (command line): netdom util or similar (please look into
Recourse Kit it for more details on the util).
4. You may also write your own util using either SetComputerName[Ex] API
(exported by XP kernel32.dll and does not require any other component) or
NetWkstaSetInfo API (exported by netapi32.dll interface and requires
Software->System->System Services->Base->Primitive: Netapi32).
SetComputerName[Ex] does nothing but a change of corresponding registry
settings. So you may just change the registry directly
(HKLM\SYSTEM\CurentControlSet\Control\ComputerName\ComputerName).
Hope this helps,
KM
