Do you mean avoid giving any machines on your LAN the
same hostname as the (hosted) web server, mail server
and ftp server? I don't even know what the hostname
for the web server is. The mail and ftp servers are
"mail.<domainname>.com" and "ftp.<domainname>.com", so
I guess I would not want to use these.
