Understanding DNS

2007-12-25 8:20:00

The original question was:

I am having trouble understanding how DNS works and what are the advantages

and disadvantages of using it. Besides the system administration guide

does anyone know of a book or document that gives a better explanation

and some good examples of how to set it up?

The majority of the responses suggested I obtain the book:

        Title: DNS and BIND

        Authors: Paul Albitz and Cricket Liu

        Publisher: O'Reilly

        Edition: 1992

        ISBN: 1-56592-010-4

Some also suggested the book:

        Title: TCP/IP Network Administration

        Author: By Craig Hunt

        ISBN: ISBN: 0-937175-82-X
