This post will show you how to use command line tool netdom and add alternate name to your domain controller running on Windows server 2003. Lets say we have domain controller named “TestDC1.testdomain.com” and we want to add alternate name “TestDC2″. To do it open command line and type:

netdom TestDC1 dc /add:TestDC2.testdomain.com

Note that netdom is part of Windows server 2003 support tools. They can be found on your OS CD (Support\Tools directory) .
