Computer name won't stick

This isn't directly related to Casper, but it is a problem I'm having
after I re-image computers.

On about half of our eMacs, the Computer Name (sharing name) will not
stick. I can change it in the Sharing pref panel, but after restarting
the computer, it reverts back.

Has anyone experienced this? I read that it could be related to open
directory / LDAP settings, but I don't know how to prevent it from
happening.

Tatian,
Check in Workgroup Manager to see if the computers are part of a list and you have the "enforce computer name" checkbox in WGM for that machine or group.
