Two ways to do it. You could keep widgets.com as your internal network
name and put in a "www" host record in DNS to point to your website if
it is external. (that's how we did it, although i would have preferred
the second method below for clarity)
Or just name your network something like "network.widgets.com" and then
you avoid the www issue.

Subject: NT Domain to 2000 Domain Upgrade
Hello,
When upgrading our NT Network to a 2000 Domain, we are trying to
understand if we need to distinguish our internal network domain name
from our external. For example in NT our current internal domain name
is "widgets" and our external website is widgets.com. When we upgrade
to Win2k what are the ramifications of keeping our internal 2000 domain
"widgets.com" and our external website widgets.com. Should we change
our internal domain to widgetscorp.com when we upgrade to win2k, and if
we don't what happens.
