So a little more testing using firefox as an application gives us some interesting results. Using the .TM TLD I entered http://tm/ into my browsers. It did not work.

Re: Unified Root - Domain Configuration Issue
Hi ozgurs, can you give me your address so I can settup a zone for you? e.g. ozgurs A 127.0.0.1 Then you have the proof that it is working. Please have a look at http://www.cesidianroot.net/ to find how to settup your DNS for the test. If you have a dynamic ip address things are a little bit more complicated but can be solved too.

Unified Root - Domain Configuration Issue
We want to buy a unified root domain, but they say we can not use the domain only one word. like ozgurs so that it opens http://ozgurs but we have to use a connected word to this TLD, like example.ozgurs here, my quetion comes! :) i bet with my friend that we can not use the domain itself. NOW I NEED A PROOF :> We want to know the reason why we can not use TLD alone itself, without a word in connected to it. ( I mean: instead of the URL ozgurs we have to use example.ozgurs ) We want the reasons, with exact documents (for example a university’s DNS managerment document from their site link or a scientific article regarding this issue (about the must of usage and reasons why we must use a word connected to the domain.) Note: We will buy these products after we are satisified with the explanations and documents’ reliability about the explained issue above. (the usages, rules of domains, configurations, DNS) I mean I have to prove this that it is impossible to use the domain as one word (like ozgurs) with very reliable indications and strongly that no one can deny it any way of idea) With best regards, OzgurS ___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
