2.2.1.6Domain name

A domain gets its domain name during installation of the primary domain controller. The backup domain controllers are assigned during installation of a domain. The assignment of a client to a domain is defined while it is being installed; it can be reconfigured later or, on some clients, modified temporarily with the net logon command, for example.

The trust relationship concept means that it is easier to manage and use several domains. (The manual entitled “Concepts and Planning” contains further information relating to this topic.)

The default domain name consists of the first eleven characters of the system name plus the suffix .dom, e.g. the domain name of the server server1 would be server1.dom.

i

The domain name consists of up to fifteen characters: letters from a to z, numbers from 0 to 9 and the special characters -.~!#$%^&()_{}.

The domain name may only be changed following installation using special utility programs. Please refer here to the section entitled “Changing server attributes” in the chapter “Administration guidelines” .
