The Domain Name System and name resolution enable hassle-free surfing for users on the World Wide Web. Here, the DNS has recourse to several types of resource records. One of these is CNAME. This allows different domains to be linked together with one IP address. But how do CNAME records work and how can you check the records?
PTR records turn the DNS on its head: Instead of getting from a domain name to the corresponding IP address – as is normally the case – with reverse DNS the opposite occurs. Which domains belong to an IP address? You can acquire this information using PTR records, which are a special type of DNS record. How do the DNS records need to be structured for this?

The open sources solution wins over users with intuitive user interface, selection...
Chrome has recently become the most widely used browser in the world. However, this Google application is just as helpless as its competitors Firefox, Opera and Safari when it comes to technical problems on the server or client side. For example, if the domain name cannot be resolved by the DNS, Chrome will simply display the error message “ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED”. In the following article, you...
