Hi all,

I have some issues that I dont fully understand.
As far as i know, we can have the domain name in the private network
whatever domain name we like abc.com, bbc.com cause it won't be seen outside
but only within the private network much like 192.168.0.1 etc. Is this the
same in setting up a mail server for local network?
If I want to try out ldap, is that right i will use whatever domain that I
have configured for my local server?

Please advice me and I apologise for any error that I have made.

Regards,
Tom
