Introduction
In this procedure, you will learn how to configure and alternate access mapping to your SharePoint Server 2007 Enterprise instance step-by-step. Specifically, we'll be adding the fully qualified domain name of the a new SharePoint collection to enable users to use this URL in order to access this collection.
Procedure
Start SharePoint Central Administration.
Select the Operations tab.
Under the Global Configuration group of links, click Alternate access mappings.
On the Alternate Access Mapping Collection dropdown list box, at right, you'll see the Show All section displayed. Click it to open the list, and then select your new collection from this list. For this procedure, the collection selected is http://2003k1/. This will update the list of mappings to display just the one you want to edit.
Click Edit Public URLs just above the Internal URL column of the list.
Now add the FQDN to the Intranet mapping.
Click Save. The list of Alternate Access Mappings for your selected collection will be updated.
Now open a browser and enter the new mapping you just created. For this procedure, this would be: http://2003k1.corp.local/.

- This alternate mapping will work for all users on the domain you configured this for. It will not work on alternate domains or in peer-to-peer environments - there you will need to use the hostname.
- There's no need to change DNS settings in order to implement alternate mapping changes, as discussed in [3].
