The DNS Hierarchical Name Space is a map of how DNS servers determine what IP address to connect to given a URL We are all looking fsorward to a great sseason in 2005. <a href=http://best-dildo-free-sex-sites-com.prosvita.uzhgorod.ua >best dildo free sex sites com</a> We hope you will be there for all the actison. best dildo free sex sites com

Map

Domain names are read from right to left. Different sub-domains under a domain name are generally used to point to different servers, however, this is not always the case. For example, the wikipedia community might want a Spanish version of the site to be on a server in Mexico. So, es.wikipedia.org might point to 67.167.39.4, while en.wikipedia.org and database.en.wikipedia.org can both point to 24.73.285.3, just different pages.
