[ NETINFO:DOMAIN-TEMPLATE.TXT ] [ 10/90 DM ]
To establish a domain, the following information must be sent to
the NIC Domain Registrar (HOSTMASTER@NIC.DDN.MIL). Questions
may be addressed to the NIC Hostmaster by electronic mail at the
above address, or by phone at (703) 802-4535 or (800) 365-3642.
NOTE: The key people must have electronic mailboxes and NIC
"handles," unique NIC database identifiers. If you have access to
"WHOIS", please check to see if you are registered and if so, make
sure the information is current. Include only your handle and any
changes (if any) that need to be made in your entry. If you do not
have access to "WHOIS", please provide all the information indicated
and a NIC handle will be assigned.
(1) The name of the top-level domain to join
(EDU, COM, MIL, GOV, NET, ORG).
1. Top-level domain:
(2) The name of the domain (up to 12 characters). This is the name
that will be used in tables and lists associating the domain with the
domain server addresses. [While, from a technical standpoint, domain
names can be quite long we recommend the use of shorter, more user-
friendly names.]
2. Complete Domain Name:
(3) The name and address of the organization establishing the
domain.
3a. Organization name:
3b. Organization address:
(4) The date you expect the domain to be fully operational.
4. Date operational:
(5) The NIC handle of the administrative head of the organization --
or this person's name, mailing address, phone number, organization,
and network mailbox. This is the contact point for administrative
and policy questions about the domain. In the case of a research
project, this should be the principal investigator.
NOTE: Both the Administrative and the Technical/Zone contact of a
domain MUST have a network mailbox, even if the mailbox is to be
within the proposed domain.
Administrative Contact
5a. NIC Handle (if known) :
5b. Name (Last, First) :
5c. Organization:
5d. Mail Address:
5e. Phone Number:
5f. Net Mailbox :
(6) The NIC handle of the technical contact for the domain -- or
the person's name, mailing address, phone number, organization,
and network mailbox. This is the contact point for
problems concerning the domain or zone, as well as for updating
information about the domain or zone.
Technical and Zone Contact
6a. NIC Handle (if known):
6b. Name (Last, First) :
6c. Organization:
6d. Mail Address:
6e. Phone Number:
6f. Net Mailbox :
(7) Domains must provide at least two independent servers
on Government-sponsored networks that provide the domain
service for translating names to addresses for hosts in
this domain.
* If you are applying for a domain and a network number assignment
simultaneously and a host on your proposed network will be used
as a server for the domain, you must wait until you receive your
network number assigment and have given the server(s) a netaddress
before sending in the domain application. Sending in the domain
application without complete information in Sections 7 and 8 of
this template will result in the delay of the domain registration.
Also, establishing the servers in physically separate locations
and on different PSNs and/or networks is strongly recommended.
NOTE: All new hosts acting as servers will appear in the DNS root
servers but will not apppear in the HOSTS.TXT file
unless otherwise requested.
Primary Server: HOSTNAME, NETADDRESS, HARDWARE, SOFTWARE
7a. Primary Server Hostname:
7b. Primary Server Netaddress:
7c. Primary Server Hardware:
7d. Primary Server Software:
(8) The Secondary server information.
8a. Secondary Server Hostname:
8b. Secondary Server Netaddress:
8c. Secondary Server Hardware:
8d. Secondary Server Software:
(9) If any currently registered hosts will be renamed into the new
domain, please specify old hostname, netaddress, and new hostname.
For example:
BAR-FOO2.XYZ.COM (26.8.0.193) -> FOO2.BAR.COM
BAR-FOO3.XYZ.COM (192.7.3.193) -> FOO3.BAR.COM
BAR-FOO4.ARPA (34.6.0.193) -> FOO4.BAR.COM
NOTE: Hostname changes to MILNET hosts must be approved by the
MILNET Manager - MILNETMGR@DDN-CONUS.DDN.MIL.
(10) Please describe your organization briefly.
For example: Our Corporation is a consulting
organization of people working with UNIX and the C language in an
electronic networking environment. It sponsors two technical
conferences annually and distributes a bimonthly newsletter.
PLEASE ALLOW AT LEAST 8 WORKING DAYS FOR PROCESSING THIS APPLICATION
