Can you change the DNS name of your AD Domain?
Yes, but you should think long and hard before doing so. You can only rename
a Domain that is in a Forest that is at Windows Server 2003 Functional
level. I suggest taking time to listen carefully to this Webcast:
819145 - Support Webcast: Microsoft Windows Server 2003: Implementing an
Active Directory Domain Rename Operation
