[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] Domain Names

gary@dvnspc1.Dev.Unisys.COM (Gary Barrett) (08/30/89)

I am posting this for someone else, so if your response is "huh?",
it's probably because I misinterpreted that someone's request:

The question:  "Does anyone know where I could find information in the
public domain about host or domain names  - excluding RFC's?"

I will pass on your replies or postings.  

Thanks.

Thanks to those of you who tried to help me.  I've learned that it
doesn't pay to be an intermediary for net queries, if nothing else!

But I did get a good lead. Thank you.  I was pointed to Comer's book 
Internetworking with TCP/IP, which contains a chapter on domain naming.  
I also found some info in Comer's Operating System Design, Volume II.
That seemed to do the trick.


Thanks again.
