- Do you have the "law" that states that you must have a unique IP
- address? What? No Law? What a totally LAME and BOGUS argument.
- There are many good techincal reasons for each machine to have its own
- IP address, just as there are many good technical reasons to properly
- register the domain via the correct channels.
-
- It is in numerous RFC's that you ****MUST**** get your domain
- registered with the NIC, or their delegated representive. In the case
- of the .COM part of the tree, the NIC has not delegated that
- authority, so you ****MUST**** register the name with them. To think
- otherwise is just flat out wrong.
