Internal domain change

["Jeff Crosby" <jlcrosby@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

In preparation for changing from a workgroup to a domain in a few weeks, the
tech has suggested "dilgardfoods.local" as the internal domain on the System
i instead of "dilgardfoods.com" as it currently is, to avoid internal and
external DNS conflicts.  This makes great sense to me.

Are there hidden pitfalls to this change?  I know I've got to look at i
Access at all the PCs to make sure they use IP address instead of
i5.dilgardfoods.com. 

As an aside, I see the infocenter recommends the HOSTSCHPTY parm on
CHGTCPDMN be set to *REMOTE.  Mine is *LOCAL.  Thoughts there?

Thanks.
