hi, i want to set up active directory. i am confident with the software but while i am installing it wants a full dns name as the domain name, which i would enter my (my domain name).dyndns.org but i have heard that this can be a security risk. is this true or is this an old wives tale? when i try to put in a single name for example i just put in 'domain' or 'nielson' instead of putting my dyndns.org domain name in windows server pops up with a message saying that this requires extra configuration. what are they talking about?
