Who says that I have to register the domain that Active Directory is using? My Active Directory name isn't intended to be used on the Internet. In most installations, you look to your own Active Directory server first for the lookups, so if it exists on the Internet it won't interfeer...until now.
In my MCSE class the Microsoft printed material said to use ".local" if you didn't have an internet domain. I always do it that way when the company I do consulting for doesn't have a domain or if they have a domain and the mail / web is at a hosting company. If the domain isn't totally in-house then I use .local
