Hello
1.Yes, having multiple computers with the same name in a domain can cause conflicts and network issues. Each computer in a domain should have a unique name to avoid conflicts and ensure proper communication within the network.
2.NetBIOS is an older networking protocol that is still used by some applications and services. Turning off NetBIOS can improve security and network performance, but it may also cause issues with some legacy applications that rely on it. It’s important to evaluate the potential impact on your network and applications before disabling NetBIOS.
3.Yes, modifying the device names to be unique within the domain can help avoid conflicts and network issues. You can rename a computer without removing it from the domain, and the change will be reflected in Active Directory. It’s important to follow proper procedures when renaming computers in a domain to ensure that the changes are properly synchronized with Active Directory.
