Changing windows server alias name on windows or unix?
My situation is that we have production unix scripts that ftp files over to a windows server. I'm not sure if its a 2000 or 2003 server as I dont work on server, more on the unix side. It turns out that they are changing servers on the network. So they are migrating our data over from say Server 1 to Server 2. This will cause us to have to change our scripts to now point to Server 2. Is there anyway that a systems admin on their side can create an alias/pointer name to Server 2 using the Server 1 name, so in conclusion we wouldnt have to change our unix scripts. Or can we create an alias on the unix side to point to Server 2 where any script would reference Server 1? Thanks in advance.

NAME
Net::Server::MultiType - Net::Server personality
SYNOPSIS
use base qw(Net::Server::MultiType);
sub process_request {
#...code...

my @types = qw(PreFork Fork Single);
Net::Server::MultiType->run(server_type => @types);
DESCRIPTION
Please read the pod on Net::Server first. This module is a personality, or extension, or sub class, of the Net::Server module.
This personality is intended to allow for easy use of multiple Net::Server personalities. Given a list of server types,
Net::Server::MultiType will require one at a time until it finds one that is installed on the system. It then adds that package to its
@ISA, thus inheriting the methods of that personality.
ARGUMENTS
In addition to the command line arguments of the Net::Server base class, Net::Server::MultiType contains one other configurable parameter.
Key Value Default
server_type 'server_type' 'Single'
server_type
May be called many times to build up an array or possible server_types. At execution, Net::Server::MultiType will find the first
available one and then inherit the methods of that personality

"Net::Server::MultiType" allows for the use of a configuration file to read in server parameters. The format of this conf file is simple
