What’s FQDN of a WORKGROUP pc

domain-namefqdnworkgroup

What do I enter when asked for FQDN (fully qualified domain name), for a PC that's not in a domain but in a WORKGROUP instead?

Best Answer

Workgroup computers don't have an FQDN unless you specifically configure them to have one. They have only a NetBIOS (single label) name.

Also, don't confuse the Primary DNS suffix with the DNS suffix search list as assigned by DHCP because they're two different things.
