Domain naming

[Doug West]

I am trying to upgrade or just install new 2k server. I am
having issue with the naming convention. Do you always
have to name it with .com or could you use .biz or
something similar. I don't actually have domain name so
this is for internal use only. An help will be greatly
appreciated.

If you are not hosting an online domain, just a local
domain, then it does not matter what name you give it,
it's always best to choose.local where prompted by MS
server setup.

Could you explain the LOCAL domain more?
