: :OK, I got a better idea. Make the top level domain linux.sgi.com and :the machine[s] stuff like : : linus.linux.sgi.com # because we like him (alias) linus.youre-hired.sgi.com (well, we tried :-) (*) : ftp.linux.sgi.com # because people will remember it (alias) : www.linux.sgi.com # alias : linux.linux.sgi.com # real machine : :Watcha all think? : Except for the fact that this is not scalable beyond linux stuff I like it. It is certainly the easiest to remember and we can always add entertaining names/aliases at the hostname level. 'friends' was my next favorite. If everyone agrees (and vernon doesn't object) I think we should go with Larry's scheme. (*) and we haven't gave up yet. -- Peace, Ariel |
