  Domain name system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Domain names are arranged in a tree, and cut into zones, which are served by nameservers.
The domain name space is a tree of domain names.
Domain names must use only a subset of ASCII characters—the Roman alphabet in upper and lower case, the digits 0 through 9, the dot, and the hyphen.

The Domain Name System or DNS is a system that stores information about hostnames and domain names in a kind of distributed database on networks, such as the Internet.
The rest of the domain name simply specifies a way of building a logical path to the information required; the hostname is the actual target system name for which an IP address is desired.
Domain names must use only a subset of ASCII characters, preventing many languages from representing their names and words natively.

The Domain Name System or DNS is a system that stores information about host names and domain names on networks, such as the Internet.
Alternatively a single host name may correspond to many IP addresses: this can facilitate fault tolerance and load distribution, and also allows a site to move physical location seamlessly.
One can find the owner of a domain name by looking in the whois database: for most gTLDs ICANN holds a basic WHOIS, with the detailed WHOIS maintained by the domain registry which controls that domain.

Once a response goes into cache, the resolver will consult its cached (stored) answer; only when the TTL expires (or when an administrator manually flushes the response from the resolver's memory) will the resolver contact the DNS server for the same information.
DNS responses are traditionally not cryptographically signed, leading to many attack possibilities; DNSSEC modifies DNS to add support for cryptographically signed responses.
Particularly noteworthy was the VeriSign Site Finder system which redirected all unregistered.com and.net domains to a VeriSign webpage, this was rapidly removed after widespread critism.
