Well, I'm now completely lost what do you mean by a "subdomain"? My concept of a "subdomain" is that it's just a (technically) regular domain, ie. regular DNS zone, which has a SOA record, NS records etc. It's juts colled a "subdomain" (which is quite arbitral) because it's one level lower than its parent domain that you (also quite arbitrarily) just call a "domain". Except TLDs, that certainly are not "subdomains", each domain is a subdomain and each subdomain is a domain. The prefix "sub" just indicates relationship between two domains. For example, everybody can register their domain under eu.org, like I did. So my domain rafa.eu.org is a subdomain of eu.org, but both are domains, in sense they are both independent DNS zones that have their own (completely different) SOA records, NS records etc. For me that was always what "subdomain" means and I would say that DNS absolutely is designed that way. Seems that you understand something else by "subdomain", then could you please explain what "subdomain" is in your understanding? -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa r...@rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
