I can only say what we use here, at MHSC.
One group I haven't seen here yet are birds, crossed with type of use and
sub-domain. Condors are always main development machines, Ravens are data
servers, falcons are support/noc hosts, hawks are intranet *DCs, peregrin's
are management machines, owls are QA servers and source repositories, etc.
All workstations are DHCP'd so names need not be man-readable and follow
conventions like wksta1.dhcp.mhsc.com, with SMB names that are also the uuid
names of their assigned user.

Subject: SERVER NAMES
This is a little off of the normal lines of the list. But I am at a loss as
to what naming convention I should use with my new set of servers. I have
already used Southpark, Jet sons,and Warner brothers cartoons. Does any one
have any good suggestions other than the Super Friends?
I apologize ahead of time if this email seems useless to some of you.. but
humor me please.
