In depth
A closer look at Network Alias
Network Alias is a simple command line tool that will display, add or remove NetBIOS names for the Server service. This allows a computer to be accessed using an alias, or a name other than the computer name. The Server service will also announce this alias to the browse list where it will be displayed in apps such as My Network Places and the NET VIEW command. After a system restart, this alias will no longer exist. To make the alias persistent, this tool would need to be scheduled to execute at system startup.
