The Naming of Hosts is a difficult matter,
|
59
|
+
It isn't just one of your holiday games;
|
60
|
+
You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
|
61
|
+
When I tell you, a host must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.

|
63

<figure align="left"><artwork align="left">
|
65
|

First of all, there's the name that the users use daily,
|
66
|
+
Such as venus, athena, and cisco, and ames,
|
67
|
+
Such as titan or sirius, hobbes or europa--
|
68
|
+
All of them sensible everyday names.

There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter,
|
73
|
+
Some for the web pages, some for the flames:
|
74
|
+
Such as mercury, phoenix, orion, and charon--
|
75
|

But all of them sensible everyday names.

But I tell you, a host needs a name that's particular,
|
80
|
+
A name that's peculiar, and more dignified,
|
81
|
+
Else how can it keep its home page perpendicular,
|
82
|
+
And spread out its data, send pages world wide?

Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum,
|
87
|
+
Like lothlorien, pothole, or kobyashi-maru,
|
88
|
+
Such as pearly-gates.vatican, or else diplomatic-
|
89
|

Names that never belong to more than one host.

But above and beyond there's still one name left over,
|
94
|

And that is the name that you never will guess;
|
95
|
+
The name that no human research can discover--
|
96
|
+
But THE NAMESERVER KNOWS, and will us'ually confess.

When you notice a client in rapt meditation,

The reason, I tell you, is always the same:

The code is engaged in a deep consultation

The Naming of Hosts is a difficult matter,
|
54
|
+
It isn't just one of your holiday games;
|
55
|
+
You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
|
56
|
+
When I tell you, a host must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.
|
57
|
+
</artwork>
|
58
|
+
<artwork align="left">
|
59
|
+
First of all, there's the name that the users use daily,
|
60
|
+
Such as venus, athena, and cisco, and ames,
|
61
|
+
Such as titan or sirius, hobbes or europa--
|
62
|
+
All of them sensible everyday names.
|
63
|
+
</artwork>
|
64
|
+
<artwork align="left">
|
65
|
+
There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter,
|
66
|
+
Some for the web pages, some for the flames:
|
67
|
+
Such as mercury, phoenix, orion, and charon--
|
68
|
+
But all of them sensible everyday names.
|
69
|
+
</artwork>
|
70
|
+
<artwork align="left">
|
71
|
+
But I tell you, a host needs a name that's particular,
|
72
|
+
A name that's peculiar, and more dignified,
|
73
|
+
Else how can it keep its home page perpendicular,
|
74
|
+
And spread out its data, send pages world wide?
|
75
|
+
</artwork>
|
76
|
+
<artwork align="left">
|
77
|
+
Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum,
|
78
|
+
Like lothlorien, pothole, or kobyashi-maru,
|
79
|
+
Such as pearly-gates.vatican, or else diplomatic-
|
80
|
+
Names that never belong to more than one host.
|
81
|
+
</artwork>
|
82
|
+
<artwork align="left">
|
83
|
+
But above and beyond there's still one name left over,
|
84
|
+
And that is the name that you never will guess;
|
85
|
+
The name that no human research can discover--
|
86
|
+
But THE NAMESERVER KNOWS, and will us'ually confess.

This RFC is a commentary on the difficulty of deciding upon an

25
|

acceptably distinctive hostname for one's computer, a problem which
|
26
|
+
grows in direct proportion to the logarithmically increasing size of
|
27
|
+
the Internet.
