I am attempting to correct my rad domain (single domain
names are bad. too late now) by creating a new domain
rad.local and then migrating all of my
users/groups/computers over to the new domain. When I run
dcpromo and try to use rad.local I get some NetBios
warning that it wants to use rad0 for the netbios name
because of network conflicts. Is there any way to avoid
this? If I continue with rad0, will I run into problems
down the road?
 
Your NetBIOS domain name is RAD and therefore the RAD.LOCAL is going to try
to use RAD but can not due to the existing RAD domain. You can rename
existing domains in W2k3. Using Rad0 will display in the Login screen. It
would have to rename that way until you upgrade to W2K3.
