Actually, this is made so much easier if it is turned into a DNS issue,
rather than editing dsm.opt/dsm.sys files on every client. We use a CNAME
to place into our dsm.sys/opt files, so that the clients never use the
machines' true hostname to contact it. The CNAME is an alias that points
at the machine, so changing the hostname does not affect the clients, so
long as the CNAME still points at the server.
