I hope not. A DNS name should get more specific from right to left, even when you have a context shift like that. IP addresses go the other way because they predate DNS, but you will note that DNS only deals with IP addresses as left-hand-sides by reversing them. -- Bill Cole [EMAIL PROTECTED] ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
