| 23049 | 2001-10-30 05:39:00 | Its just a name (actually a 'hostname'. It's probably the 3rd (or 4th) computer box which is running an http server at that site. Or(with 'multihosting' it could be the 3rd http server running on a particular computer box at that site. It could have been called 'fred3.' or 'heather1.' if you prefer, and you could still http://fred1.... and it would open a WWW page. It's all magic. And mostly it works. | Guest (0) | ||
