I have very little experience about linux networking. I want to connect two commuters. One is configuerd as domain controller with windows 2000 Active directory with domain name milky way IP add 198.165.10.2 same DNS address and second is with mandrake 8.1. Tell me how I will conect two PCs Tell with the simple langauge with proper instructions with staiate method OR Tell me how I will configur linux as a samba server with peer-to peer madel in the simple sets of instructions.

Are spaces allowed in domain names? (Genuine question. I thought they were not.)
address and second is with mandrake 8.1.
What's a (same) DNS address?

DNS does not restrict which characters are allowed in a domain name.
The Domain Name Space:
* Tree Structure * Nodes have labels that are 0 to 63 octets long * Sibling nodes may not have the same label * Root node has a null string label * Domain Name is the list of labels on the path from node to root * Domain names are stored with arbitrary case, but compared case-insensitive * Separate parts of the domain are separated by a . * Since root node is a null string, a domain name would end with a . * Names which are relative to some well known origin server, or search domain do not end with a . * The most common interpretation uses the root "." as the single origin * Total number of octets should not exceed 255
You can check the RFC, or have a look at my slides at http://www.acm.org/chapters/bombay/slides/20010427.zip

IIRC, the character set *is* restricted to [A-Za-z0-9-] for any part of a name (a FQDN will be name.name....). _ and ' ' and other pounctuation characters are not allowed in domain names.

DNS does not place these restrictions. However, the scope of DNS is way way beyond host names. Genereally, such restrictions are application (as in an application of DNS) dependent, so for host names, other characters may not be allowed, but for something else (say email addresses (yes, DNS can be used to map email addresses to mailboxes too)), they would be (yes, a space is allowed in an email address. you can also have comments in an email address. heck, you can have nested comments.).
DNS was designed so that it could be used for anything. DNS could also be used for SSL certification authorities. You'd just add a new CLASS. Current existing classes are INternet (default), CHaosnet, and HeSiod.
