I've found that two Windows XP SP2 machines I recently renamed are showing
many DCMO Event 1009 Errors in the System log of each system. The description
is:

DCOM was unable to communicate with the computer <oldcomputername> using any
of the configured
protocols.

I've run dcomcnfg on each system and they both give me DCOM Configuration
Warning! messages when I click on DCOM Config. One of the messages says

The CLSID{number}, itme <file path> and title Collection Edit Class has the
named value AppID, but is not recorded under the \\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AppId.
Do you wish to record it?

I click Yes and then I get the same message with a slightly different CLSID.
I click Yes and then I'm in.

Is there some place that the computer rename might not have taken place
correctly?

Interesting. Is it set up for, or on, a LAN?

Yes it is. They are all domain-connected systems.
