In the context of a DNS-centred newsgroup/mailing list Chris' answer was 
excellent.  Whether the original author was asking about the DNS is, of 
course, slightly open to question.  Unfortunately, as you imply,  
computing, and network related fields in particular, are full of 
multivalued terms.  They have to be disambiguated by referring to their 
particular, errm, domain.
