Is there a way to easily change the domain name on a windows 2003 X64 box? I tried using the domainrename utility but it didn't work on X64

The brilliant technician we used to have configured our companies windows domain name to be the same as our web-site. Our web-site however is hosted with an outside party. Thus we can get to any web-site except for our own because our computers use our windows 2003 server as our dns server (like they should) and when they look up our web address say abc.com they get the local dns record versus the wan public dns lookup. I am wondering what the best way to reolve this.

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.
