Hi list,
So, I imagine that I cannot be the first person to come across this, and
maybe someone else here has. At work, we get to our intranet by going
to http://intranetname. This name is resolved by WINS. Eventually, we
will no longer have a WINS server or be using WINS, and that will be
resolved by DNS. The FQDN would be intranetname.ourdomain.com. The
problem with that is that by going to the site using the FQDN, IE will
interpret that as an IntERnet zone site. We have our security settings
on our client machines set differently in the intRAnet zone and the
IntERnet zone. So, does anyone know how I can get around that? Here is
what I'm currently thinking, and I don't see why this wouldn't work.
With DNS, a user can still go to http://intranet. That will still
resolve just fine, correct? If so, what I will do is setup an
additional site on the intranet server that will redirect users from
http://intranet.ourdomain.com to http://intranet, and that would be the
end of that.
I guess I'm just asking if that seems like a fine solution or if there
is some other better/standard way to get around this.
Thanks,
Ray at work
p.s. Site is hosted on a W2K server, hence on topic. :P
