Dear guys:

 

Before migrate to Windows 2000 AD, users can open their OUTLOOK via Internet.

 

l          Exchange 5.5 NT 4.0 BDC with internet connection & IP. Users can connect to this mail server and open OUTLOOK just like in the office.

 

After migrate to Windows 2000 AD, users get server name resolution problem in connect to Exchange server.

 

l          Exchange 5.5 Windows 2000 member server with internet connection & IP.

 

When you type the Exchange server FQDN & user's mailbox name in the Outlook profile and click "Check Names", the server name will automatically be "shorten". Only keep the host name, not the FQDN. This situation happens both before and after migrates to Windows 2000. However, when the Exchange server is NT 4.0 BDC, it works. But failed when it upgrade to Windows 2000 member server.

Now I have to add the Exchange server Host name and Internet IP at user's Hosts file to connect to the mail server via Internet.  

Any one has better way to fix the Name resolution problem?
