Rename domain from domain.local to ad.domain.no
Hello!
I need to rename my domain.local to ad.domain.no. This is because I have a Citrix setup that needs SSL cert. But from 1.november 2015 .local is not a valid fqdn.
Anyone know how I can easily rename my domain to ad.domain.no ? What will happen with my Exchange server? And all other servers/client connected to my domain.local ?
I hope someone can help clarify things :)
Thanks

It's not an easy process, you will need to plan for it very carefully.
Here is a few guides on what to do.

The domain rename operation is not supported in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or Exchange Server 2010. DNS domain rename is supported in Exchange Server 2003. However, renaming of the NetBIOS domain name is not supported in any version of Exchange Server.
From: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738208%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
It is imperative that you not attempt a domain rename operation until you read and understand the contents of this technical reference. The domain rename operation is not supported in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or Exchange Server 2010.
And finally the document you provided - http://download.microsoft.com/download/c/f/c/cfcbff04-97ca-4fca-9e8c-3a9c90a2a2e2/Domain-Rename-Procedure.doc - predates Exchange 2007.
It is not supported and anyone attempting this would be opening a world of potential pain not to mention handing MS a get of jail free card should you try open a support call now or down the line.

Why do you need an internal SSL certificate for Citrix? You should be able to switch to a public name and just change the references in Exchange and Citrix to your public name.

I seem to recall you could use a fixup tool for Exchange 2003.
