OK so you can create an alias for a server even though it is not a member
server of the domain?

Hi BW,.
If you create the alias in your domain zone, domain client will by default
append the domain suffix when they try to resolve the name, so
http://intranet will be interpreted to mean http://intranet.mydomain.local
and resolved by the DNS.

Hi, this may be really simple but it is confusing me a bit.
We have a win2k3 domain (mydomain.local for example). We have another
win2k3 server that is not a DC or even member server of any domain. I
want
to be able to add a DNS alias for this machine. However if I got to DNS
server for mydomain.local and try to add alias, it will always try to
prefix
with domain name (Eg. server.mydomain.local) but server is not part of the
domain. Is this an issue or is there a totally different way I'm supposed
to
do this? This server is hosting some internal webpages so instead of
http:\\server\page I'd like to add an alias and use http:\\intranet\page
instead.
TIA.
