We choose to make ours slightly different internally. Using your example our
external in widgets.com and our internal root is internal.widgets.com. From
that root placeholder we then built our domestic and international domains
where the users and resources are. So our domestic internal domain is
domestic.internal.widgets.com for example.

Subject: Upgrading from NT Domain to Win2K Domain
Hello all,
I actually sent this yesterday, but I wanted to rephrase a few things.
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 FQDN www.widgets.com. 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 FQDN,
widgets.com. Should we change our internal domain to widgetscorp.com or
something comparable when we upgrade to win2k, and if we don't what
happens. Widgets.com is currently hosted on our internal NT domain on an
IIS 4.0 server, behind a raptor firewall, using redirection on the
firewall, with DNS at our ISP. Once upgraded to 2000 it will continue to
be located internally on our network behind the firewall with AD
integrated DNS internally and external internet DNS at our ISP. Thanks
for any help or suggestions in advance.
