- .sh 1 "Setting up Your Own Domain"
- .pp
- When setting up a domain that is going to be on a public
- network the site administrator should contact the organization
- in charge of the network and request the appropriate domain registration form.
- An organization that belongs to multiple networks (such as \fICSNET\fP,
- \fIDARPA Internet\fP and \fIBITNET\fP) should register with only one network.
-
- The contacts are as follows:
- .sh 2 "DARPA Internet"
- .pp
- Sites that are already on the DARPA Internet and need information on
- setting up a domain should contact HOSTMASTER@NIC\fB\|.\|\fPDDN\fB\|.\|\fPMIL\fB\|.\fP
- You may also want to be placed on the BIND mailing list,
- which is a mail group for people on the DARPA Internet running BIND.
- The group discusses future design decisions, operational problems,
- and other related topic.
- The address to request being placed on this mailing list is:
- .(b l
- \fIbind-request\|@\|ucbarpa\fP\fB\|.\|\fP\fIBerkeley\fP\fB\|.\|\fP\fIEDU\fP\fB.\fP

- .sh 2 CSNET
- .pp
- A \fICSNET\fP member organization that has not registered its domain
- name should contact the \fICSNET\fP Coordination and Information Center
- (\fICIC\fP) for an application and information about setting up a domain.
- .pp
- An organization that already has a registered domain name should
- keep the \fICIC\fP informed about how it would like its mail routed. In
- general, the \fICSNET\fP relay will prefer to send mail via \fICSNET\fP (as
- opposed to \fIBITNET\fP or the \fIInternet\fP) if possible.
- For an organization on multiple networks, this may not always be the
- preferred behavior.
- The \fICIC\fP can be reached via electronic mail at
- \fIcic\|@\|sh\fP\fB\|.\|\fP\fIcs\fP\fB\|.\|\fP\fInet\fP, or by phone at (617) 873-2777.
- .sh 2 BITNET
- .pp
- If you are on the BITNET and need to set up a domain, contact INFO@BITNIC.
