 Tips  #3

 

Hello,

 

I started to read a book (600 pages, only in french ... but im french lol) written by Jean-Francois Rouquié ( He is French and CLP/CLI ,IBM consultant etc... )

 

And i learned that in theory, your server can use a very long name and contening spaces.

But as most of us use TCIP/IP, this name has to be correct and not exotic !!! ( Except, il you like Netbios ....... lol )

 

That means :

 

15 caracters MAX

No spaces

Only A-Z , a-z, 0-9 and - (dash) should be used

 

First Name :

 

No Spaces

You can use - or _  if needed

Ex : Anne-Sophie or Anne_Sophie

 

Last Name :

 

No Spaces

You can use - or _ if needed

Ex: Anne DE-LA-HUCHETTE (sounds really french hum ? LOL)

Ex : Jose JAMIREZ_MARTINEZ ( most of spanish people have and use their 2 Last Name (from father and mother), it´s written on their id cards.

 

Normally First Name + Last Name should not be longer thant 24 caracters.

 

 

It was the Friday Tip, thank you and have a good WE !!

If i am wrong, come back to me, it is free, Fabien Menigault
