What is Domain Name Resolution - 0 views

  • What is Domain Name Resolution Introduction When using the Internet most people connect to web sites, ftp servers or other Internet servers by connecting to a domain name, as in www.bleepingcomputer.com. Internet applications, though, do not communicate via domain names, but rather using IP addresses, such as 192.168.1.1. Therefore when you type a domain name in your program that you wish to connect to, your application must first convert it to an IP address that it will use to connect to. The way these hostnames are resolved to their mapped IP address is called Domain Name Resolution. On almost all operating systems whether they be Apple, Linux, Unix, Netware, or Windows the majority of resolutions from domain names to IP addresses are done through a procedure called DNS.

  • Hosts File - There is a file called the HOSTS file that you can use to convert domain names to IP addresses. Entries in the HOSTS file override any mappings that would be resolved via a DNS server

      I think this is what some spam and adware programs use .... you type a normal site Name but you go yo another site ... i think so !!
  • Netbios - This only applies to Windows machines and will only be used to map names to IP addresses if all previous methods failed. This method will attempt to map the netbios name you are trying to connect to with an IP address.

      any body can explain this point for me ?
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • This can be changed though by changing certain registry keys
    • Islam TeCNo
       
      start -> run -> regedit this will allow you to edit the registry
  • DnsPriority = 30 LocalPriority = 200 HostsPriority = 75 NetbtPriority = 100
    • Islam TeCNo
       
      Or Simpler DnsPriority = 1 HostsPriority = 2 NetbtPriority = 3 LocalPriority = 4

    'Blockstack is an open-source project and a decentralized network. For the past years, one company, Blockstack Inc, has taken the lead on protocol development. We plan to have many independent individuals and companies operating on the network and taking on greater roles in the protocol's development. We will release more details on governance structures and potential independent entities that can provide a degree of neutrality and balance to the protocol development in the long run.'

    'Welcome, this is a prototype test version of James Burke's Knowledge Web (video overview). It includes only the very basic functions. The fully developed version will have three tools (input and display) that all work together: 1) a web view (see above) to see the relationships, 2) a timeline to know when you are (e.g., Chronozoom), and 3) a map to know where you are (also tours of historical sites).
