Actually, that IS their real name. They are a "dot com" that has succeeded and is still around. -----Original Message----- From: Raymond McClinnis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2003 2:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] AD Upgrade with "bad" NetBIOS name I don’t know that it’s such a bad thing…  Most or all of the TechNet examples will be personalized for their environment…J   But Seriously, I’d consider migrating to a domain that has their real name in it, if not entirely for esthetic reasons.   But that’s just me…       Thanks,   Raymond McClinnis Network Administrator Provident Credit Union   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael B. Smith Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2003 11:05 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] AD Upgrade with "bad" NetBIOS name   I've just retained a client whose NT4 domain name is company.com -- yes, their netbios domain name.   I'm seriously concerned about upgrading them to AD. Do I have any worries? I've never seen this one before, and it isn't covered in any of the whitepapers I've quickly perused.   Thanks.
