Should I use the ISA Firewall in addition to my Netscreen Firewall? I'm very happy with the Netscreen performance however, I'm not quite sure if they are able to co-exist on my network or, should i keep using my Netscreen? Or switch over to Win 2K Server's ISA? Please help me out. Keven

Wibbe -- Do you suggest when setting up AD that I just leave the "What is your registered domain name?" field blank so it defaults to .local? I guess if I don't do this, browsing the network will have a much slower performance?

Wibbie -- Thanks alot! That worked out just fine! Now tell me this. The way i set up the AD names, is that okay? Is it correct? How do people usually configure their name?
