What is the DNS?
DNS stands for the Domain Name Service.
DNS is a set of software and
protocols that translate a domain name like www.webyourcompany.com into
an IP address such as 192.168.0.1 . A request for such a translation is
called a DNS query. DNS queries are sent to DNS servers registered for a
domain name.
Web browsers like Netscape and Internet Explorer generate queries
whenever they browse addresses like
http://www.webyourcompany.com.
