.sh 1 "Setting up Your Own Domain"
|
|
.pp
|
|
When setting up a domain that is going to be on a public network the site
|
|
administrator should contact the organization in charge of the network and
|
|
request the appropriate domain registration form. An organization that
|
|
belongs to multiple networks (such as the \fIInternet\fP and
|
|
\fIBITNET\fP) should register with only one network.
|
|
.sh 2 "Internet"
|
|
.pp
|
|
Sites on the Internet who need information on setting up a domain should
|
|
contact the registrar for their network, which is one of the following:
|
|
.TS
|
|
l l.
|
|
MILnet \s-1HOSTMASTER\s+1@\s-1NIC\s+1\fB\|.\|\fP\s-1DDN\s+1\fB\|.\|\fP\s-1MIL\s+1
|
|
other \s-1HOSTMASTER\s+1@\s-1INTERNIC\s+1\fB\|.\|\fP\s-1NET\s+1
|
|
.TE
|
|
You may also want to be placed on the \s-1BIND\s+1 mailing list, which is a
|
|
mail group for people on the Internet who run \s-1BIND\s+1. The group
|
|
discusses future design decisions, operational problems, and other related
|
|
topic. The address to request being placed on this mailing list is:
|
|
.(b l
|
|
\fIbind-request\|@\|uunet\fP\fB\|.\|\fP\fIuu\fP\fB\|.\|\fP\fInet\fP
|
|
.)b
|
|
.sh 2 "Subdomains of Existing Domains"
|
|
.pp
|
|
If you want a subdomain of some existing domain, you should find the contact
|
|
point for the parent domain rather than asking one of the above top-level
|
|
registrars. There should be a convention that \fBregistrar\fP@\fIdomain\fP
|
|
or \fBhostmaster\fP@\fIdomain\fP for any given domain will always be an alias
|
|
for that domain's registrar (somewhat analogous to \fBpostmaster\fP), but
|
|
there is no such convention. Try it as a last resort, but first you should
|
|
examine the \fISOA\fP record for the domain and send mail to the ``responsible
|
|
person'' shown therein. You can also try \fIwhois\fP.
