• Receiving the message: a duplicate name exists on the network.

  I ran a repair Windows Home CD with SP1 on this laptop and I had trouble getting to the end. He kept giving error message - missing or damaged dll file. So finally, after several attempts and a few prayers, I was able to get through without having to run a Recovery Console. As I said, I was trying

  This with an installation disc which was old SP1 CD. So now, I have also installed two SP 2 & 3. And now I have an error message pops up saying: a duplicate name exists on the network (the).  I was told I could install a XP Pro Tools program, but I forgot to write the instructions. And he still appears whenever I boot Windows XP Home OS. Any suggestions? I appreciate it as this notice little if aggravating especially after all I wanted to do this work without an error Mssg.

  Hi Alweed,

  You can try the following steps and check:

  a. right click on desktop

  b. click Properties

  c. click on the computer name tab at the top.

  d. check the 'display name' of each computer in question and make sure they are unique.

  (e) if they are not, click on the button 'change'. (If not, replace the name of one of the computers)

  f. you may have to restart your computer.

• A duplicate name exists on the network

  Hello

  We are trying to install a 4.6 view environment and am getting an error on my VMs that a duplicate name exists on the network. The pool does not composer and is automated with assignment of the user of floating. I created a template which is Windows XP and on our field. Research on virtual machines that there where to create the pool, they each kept the model name VM's DNS name is following my pattern of naming. Is it possible to have virtual machine created by the pool GET a new name?

  Thank you

  You must use sysprep/quickprep to rename the guest operating system: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2003797

  I think that you can only use quickprep with linked clones, so you need to use sysprep:

  1. download Microsoft sysprep (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/838080)

  2. you will need to prepare your sysprep answer file (it is a good guide: http://capitalhead.com/articles/force-sysprep-to-prompt-for-a-computer-name-during-mini-setup-in-windows-xp.aspx)

  3. If you are using the guide above and you let the ComputerName = * in place, it will automatically generate a new name for the computer for you.  If you remove the * you will need to enter a computer name whenever a new virtual machine is created.  Not exactly ideal because it is supposed to be automatic, but at least you would get a control.

  4. install the deployment tools XP on your server vCenter (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\sysprep\xp)

  5 load your Sysprep.inf in your 'customization specifications' within the VI client.

  This gives you a name generated randomly for each virtual computer.  Unfortunately, I have not been able to find a way to make this name match the pattern specified in the pool.  I gave up at the end and switched to linked Clones as it makes the whole process a million times easier

  Hope this helps

• Windows system error: a duplicate name exists on the network.

  I get an error message from windows at initial startup. The message is "Windows system error: a duplciate name exists on the network." How can I fix this?

  What version of Windows, including the service pack is installed?

  After the error, can you use the computer to access the Internet?

  You have a home network (i.e. more than one computer sharing an Internet connection) or this error pops up on a computer used in a business/company/Office?

  Assuming that there is a situation of home, what has changed recently in what concerns other devices (computer, printers, game boxes, etc.) added to the mix?

  How this computer is connected to the Internet?

  Make a right click my computer and select Properties.  Then click on the "Computer name" tab  The 'full name' should not be the same as the name of "workgroup".

  The error is a complaint that another device on any network to which your computer is connected to has the same name that the 'full name' shown in system properties (I assume that it is also possible that the error reports that there are two devices on the network with the same name even if none of these devices your computer).

  Although there are utilities that scan your network and to report the names of connected devices, they are somewhat nonsimple to use and may not work on a computer that will expose the error that report you.

  If your computer is on a home network, share an Internet connection using a router, you can manually check all other devices.  You don't maybe not easily able to determine the 'computer name' no computer network devices, but it is highly unlikely that such a device, for example, a network printer, would have the same name as your computer.

  Just to be sure there isn't something special going, disconnect your computer from your network (or your Internet connection) and then it reboot.  The duplicate name error should NOT appear if the computer is not connected to a network.

• When I turn on my computer, I get this message, "a duplicate name exists on the network."

  I've had this name for years, what happened?

  Thanks for the reply.  No, the computer name and workgroup name are not the same.  Should they be?

  No, if they were the same, which can cause the error you see.

  I can't guess any further, unless you answer the other questions.

  The error is a complaint that another device on any network to which your computer is connected has the same name as the 'full name' shown in system properties.

  Although there are utilities that scan your network and to report the names of connected devices, they are somewhat nonsimple to use and probably would not work on a computer that will expose the error your report.

  If your computer is on a home network, share an Internet connection using a router, you can manually check all other devices.  You don't maybe not easily able to determine the 'computer name' no computer network devices, but it is highly unlikely that such a device, for example, a network printer, called "Lamb stew Computer" or else you might have named your computer.

• Create the pool a duplicate name exists on the network

  Hi all

  I did an installation of View manager 3.0.1 on a client.

  The I ve problem is that when I deploy a pool of computers from a Windows XP template, Virtualcenter begins to create jobs and give the same name to VM on several desktop computers. i. e. I create a pool of 4 desktop computers, I, made a customization of comments through virtualcenter, indicating that the name of the client should be VDI and check the option Add a numeric value.

  When virtualcenter has finished creating the jobs, I see desktop dns names are VDI-0, 0 - VDI, VDI-1 and VDI-1.

  VirtualCenter begins to create VMS by pairs almost at the same time. This is the reason why he assings the same name for 2 virtual machines.

  At present, there is no DHCP. the customization file is set to use DHCP and add to that the field despite this machine will not work.

  I don't know why virtualcenter deploy 2 virtual machines at the same time time.

  Could someone tell me where is the problem?

  Thanks in advance.

  First of all, vCenter will always try to do two processes at the same time. You can adjust it when you added vCenter to view (the advanced settings allow you to adjust it higher or lower).

  Second, if the customization file requires DHCP and you do not have, they always miss and that's maybe why you get two the same ID (he's trying to create them, they do not, then trying it again).

  Download DHCP, first working to remove it so that the deployment can fully operate.

  And what do you mean by: '.. '. Check the option Add a numeric value. Where did you get this? Can put you up a screenshot?

• "Double Windows error-a system name exists on the network."

  Whenever I start the computer, the following message appears: "Error in window system - a duplicate name exists on the network."  I have studied this problem and the advice I found said I should rename my computer.  I done it twice - the problem persists.  "Quick Fix" links or ideas would be appreciated.  I'm using Windows XP (NOT for Vista).  Thanks in advance for your help.

  No, the router could not be the cause. How many computers do you have on the network? What are their names? Don't worry, I'm not laughing. My own computers have funny names such as Blackadder, Taliesin and James to name a few. ;-) MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• When I turn on my computer, when I log in, the computer tell me that a duplicate name exists,

  When I turn on my computer, on the start page of the sign, the computer tells me in one or two boxes that a duplicate name exists on the computer. Sometimes, when I'm working on the computer on the bottom right a yellow shield stands up and says that a duplicate name exists. When I click on it. He just disappears. I don't know how to solve this problem. my computer started running real slow at the start of this problem. I don't know not one of my kids did something, but they claim that they have not, please help me solve this problem

  Although you probably solved this problem, the simple solution would be to rename you the computer.

• Reoprts itdrep server already exists in the network

  Hello
  
  I have two AIX machines with different host names and server application independent of 10 gr 2 installed on both machines. I created a new report server with the name "ITDREP" on both machines (same name on both machines).
  Now when I try from the report server on the Computer1 it starts but after that if I try to start the report server on computer2 it fails with the error "Reoprts itdrep server already exists in the network.
  
  If I want to have a server of reoprt with the same name on both machines, what should I do?
  
  
  Concerning
  Ankit

  As you can see, the port = "14021' for the multicast network.
  If you specify on the second server port = "14022" then you can use the same name reportserver on both servers.
  Only downside is that you can send requests to report from the first server (to the help of run_report_object rwservlet, rwclient or forms) to the reportsserver on the second, but this isn't a problem if you have set up 2 servers identical for purposes of distribution of the load or high availability.

• Network management problem, computer laptop Windows 7 will not find other computers on any network, however all other computers on the network can access Windows 7 laptop.

  Basically, the issue I'm having is that my laptop does not connect to any other computer to access the actions or other files.  Other computers on the network can access my computer laptop shares and files without any problems.  Operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium x 64.

  What I tried:

  restarted
  uninstalling and reinstalling the files and printers, sharing maps and restart after completion
  all disabled firewall
  tried with IPv6 enabled and disabled without change, so it is currently enabled
  tried on a Wi - Fi and the differences are listed below in the section work (work is wireless)
  able to ping other comptuers
  access to other computers is permitted by other computers

  problem extends over several networks, IE I noticed it at home last night and the followed problem my laptop at work this morning.
  The problem is slightly different on the two sites.

  At home:
  I can see the other computers on the network, but I am unable to access it, even if I have permission, but other computers can access to my laptop.

  At work:
  Cannot even find other computers on the network but they can find and access my laptop.

  I have worked on this problem of non stop for several hours and did much more than what is said, but I am unable to remember everything.  I should have been taking notes: P

  Asked this question in the Windows 7 forum also because the problem was between windows 7 and Vista.

  Hello

  If it has started, you can try a system restore - an update "might" have caused the problem.

  1. try a system restore back to a point before that happened. And immediately thereafter enter
  Control Panel - Windows updates - top left settings and set it to download and informs you instead
  Automatic. Leave it until you are sure that everything is OK and then you can add them one at a time
  to troubleshoot BUT click right on and HIDE all the driver updates. Also stop at day of drivers like below
  and let this value - manually search for drivers when you think you need. (See how and why to)
  stop day of drivers below.)

  How to make a Vista system restore
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/76905-System-Restore-how.html

  To uninstall an update if you determine that there are problems - Panel - updated Windows - down left-
  Updates installed - uninstall

  I had completely forgotten the system restore!  While looking into the system restore, I found that when I moved into my new House and has cable Internet installed, the cable technology installed a program of comcast on my computer.  This caused me to not be able to connect with other computers.  After rolling back to install it before it works!   Thank you.
