Well, that's an interesting thought. A domain, to me, means where the DNS of the world goes looking for my server. I'm self taught (from O'Reilly books, etc.) on Linux, and I've had next to nothing to do with MicroSoft anything. A domain is quite important to a server on the 'Net -- it never occurred to me that it meant something else in the MS world. > Again, which is the 'correct' one? To me, the one I rent from my registrar. Or one of the virtuals I host -- wherever DNS is trying to go.
