I own my domain name and it is registered through an external host provider for my website. I would like to create a private network with the same or similar domain name without causing conflicts with my existing domain host and not have problems qualifying the name. How should I address this and/or is it possible. I will be using various free server platforms and computers. They will all have internet access, (although some might remain isolated members of the active directory for testing purposes).
My example domain name:
>www.mydomain.com
Can I use names such as;
>mydomain.com
>private.mydomain.com
>mydomain.local
>local.mydomain.com
>server1.private.mydomain.com
or should i just choose some other name and later deal with attempting to migrate or cluster servers.
