How to change zone name ?

[KhaN]

I would like to know how i can change zone name.
I speak about the name you see in bold in center of the screen.
I already changed name in DB and it work, but the one you see first is the one in center of screen ...
I have search in code and cant find where.

Quoting mongrel from this thread:

The long zone name is in the eqstr_us.txt. Short zone name is server side.

I also seem to remember reading somewhere that it is stored inside of the zone file itself.

You have to edit it in DOS

Can edit it in wordpad as well. Just not notepad.
