Windows Server Forum / Windows 2000 / Active Directory / July 2008Domain name problem ?
When I install window server 2000, it need a domain name, for this domain name ,do I need to register this domain name in hosting company or just any name will work? Thanks. Hi, If this machine is a stand alone machine, then any name would do. If this machine is going to be a part of a domain, you need to enter the FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) along with the right credentials that have permissions to join this machine to the domain. Hope this helps!!!

Hello jakein2008, You can use the name you like. But make sure that it always looks like company.loc and not only company. If you make it only company without the the .loc or .org or .whatever, you can become unwanted problems. These so named sinlge label domain names should be avoided. It is also good practise to choose only 3 characters at the end.

Hi, thank you for your answer. Do i need to register my domain in the hosting company for me to use active directory and send email from that domain?

Hello jakein2008, Your public internet domain name has to be registered and your ISP has to make the settings that mail can arrive at your mailserver. Your internal domain name from AD is not needed.

If I use internal domain name , can I send email from this domain name? Thanks. > Hello jakein2008, > [quoted text clipped - 38 lines] > >>> > >>> Thanks. Hello jakein2008, This is all based on the DNS settings inside your domain and also on the settings configured at your provider site, to route email to your mailserver. I would suggest to post to the DNS NG to get the correct infos about configuration of DNS for mail sending and receiving about your provider. microsoft.public.win2000.dns microsoft.public.windows.server.dns Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. ** Please do NOT email, only reply to Newsgroups ** HELP us help YOU!!! http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm > If I use internal domain name , can I send email from this domain > name?
