Hi,

I am setting up DNS on my Windows Server 2003 and I was wondering if the Primary DNS Suffix can be any made up domain name or do I first need to purchase it from a site like godaddy.com?

Thank You. 

Do I need to purchase a domain name or can I create when up when setting up DNS suffixes?

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.

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
