A. In Windows NT 4.0 you set the primary DNS suffix using thedomain field in the DNS tab of TCP/IP properties.
In Windows 2000 this is performed as follows:
Right click on My Computer and select Properties
Select the Network tab
Click the Properties button
Click the More button
Enter the Primary DNS suffix and click OK
Click here to view imageClick OK to the prompt informing you will need to reboot the computer
Close all dialogs
Reboot the computer
This is very important on domain controllers before configuring DNS aswithout this configured the created DNS records will not have the fullyqualified host name.
