Hello!
Pardon me for a basic question, but an important question I need to
understand...
We are finally in the beginning phase of moving to AD from NT 4.0 environment
and in the process of picking DNS name for our company. Our environment is
pretty simple so we are going through domain upgrade instead of using the
migration method. Our company has domain Company.com running on non Windows DNS
servers. Sine we don't want to run our company's DNS on Windows environment, we
have to choose new domain name for AD, correct? So we came up with Company.Corp
as the name for our Windows DNS. My concern is that it's not a qualified domain
that can't ever be registered with Internic even if we ever wanted to do it in the
future (Who know what's going on in the future???).
I am wondering if anyone can point me to good documentation that goes over the best practice of picking proper names or tell me that we should not be using .local or .corp
for the reason I stated above. Or can't we just use something like
Corp.Company.com? Or I should just relax and just use .local or .corp our internal DNS name servers...
I'd appreciate any feedback you can give me.
Thank you in advance,
Brian
