rendom /list and domainlist.xml

[Jake]

Hi,

I'm in the process of renaming a domain from mydomain to mydomain.local.
When I do a rendom /list I see that domainlist.xml's NetBIOS names are
empty, except for the last record (ForestRoot) where I find:

DNSName=mydomain and NetBIOSname=MYDOMAIN

In my case, should I fill in NetBIOSname=MYDOMAIN in all four records
and change the other fields from mydomain to mydomain.local?

Thanks a lot for comments on this.

regards

Jake

No domain rename wizards?? Re: rendom /list and domainlist.xml

Hi again,

I would appreciate comments on this issue. I believe that the reason
for the empty NetBIOS name fields is the single label (non-dotted)
domain name. Please can anyone confirm or deny if I should leave the
NetBIOS name fields empty in the edited mydomain.local xml file.

Thanks a lot if there is a kind sould..
