  Slave name - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A slave name is a name that is given to a person who has been enslaved, or who has inherited the name from enslaved ancestors.
Slave names may be of English, French, Dutch, Irish, Scottish, Spanish or Portuguese origin.
While it has roots in slave naming custom, giving names through agglutination of the first syllables of ancestors' names is more of a contemporary practice.

 Slavery In Pennsylvania--Slave Names   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Greek mythology is represented by "Hector," for the mythical Trojan warrior, and was used as a male slave name in several counties.
Some slaves were named for famous people, as were the two male children in Lancaster who were registered as "Napoleon Bonaparte." One slave was born in 1813 just prior to Napoleon's exile to Elba, and the other was born in 1826, more than ten years after the death of the French emporer.
The preponderance of common surnames among slaves, and the belief that those surnames were chosen by the slaves themselves, suggests that slaves chose surnames with a desire to fit into everyday society, and not to be set apart from it.

 U.S. Census of Boone Co., Ky. - Slave Schedules - 1850   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The slave schedules list the slave by the owner’s name (who usually was the head of household of his own family), the age, gender, and race of the slave (fl or mulatto), as well as notes regarding their manumition or their fugitive status.
Insert in the heading the number or name of the district, town, city and the county or parish, and of the state in which the slave inhabitants enumerated reside, and the day of the month upon which the enumeration was taken.
The name of the person is to be given, although at the time of the enumeration such person may not have held slaves on the 1st of June.

 Slave Names
Africans commonly would name a child after the day or month of birth (day-name), or they might name him or her after a particular personality trait that was discerned immediately.
A slave named Quack would be taken by white travelers to be the victim of some master's bad taste, but probably his own parents had simply adapted the African Quaco, meaning a male born on Wednesday.
Thus, names that were assumed to have been absurdities imposed by whites, often reflected fl initiatives or interpretations, and suggest a line of continuity in the life of the quarters even when the origins of that line had been forgotten.

 Setting up a slave name server
A slave name server will take some of the burden away from your primary name server, and will also function as a backup server, in case your master server is unreachable.
These files are the same, whether they are on a master or slave server, so local copies of these files can be kept on the slave server in the interest of saving time and effort during a zone transfer.
Once named is running, look in the directory where you keep your zone files to see if backup copies of your name-to-address and address-to-name files have been created.

 Configuring Domain Name System (DNS) servers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
DNS domain names are structured as a listing, from left to right, of the domain name space traced from the host to the root.
If a name server is also configured in ``forward-only'' or ``slave'' mode, it is only allowed to use its forwarders to resolve queries.
A slave name server functions as a backup to the master server, should the master be unreachable or down.

 Slave Schedules
Slave schedules were added to the federal census in 1850 and 1860, but enumerators were not required to list each slave by name.
Instead, the name of the slave owner appears with only a meager description of each slave—age, sex, and color.
Columns also list the number of fugitive and manumitted slaves, as well as a column that identifies slaves who were deaf, blind, insane or idiotic.

 The 'Rights' of the Enslaved
The slave in itself is seen as property, an item whose sole purpose is to bring pleasure to the owner and/or comfort to his life.
The female slave seeks to give all, selflessly, knowing that she, as she is a mere slave, a rightless animal owned by her master, one who can be bought and sold at his least whim, can make no claims, that she deserves nothing, and is entitled to not the least attention or consideration.
Her name might be changed, or altered, as often as a Master wished.

 DNS name server types   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
A slave server functions as a backup to the master server, should the master be unreachable or down.
When a slave server answers a client request, it attaches an expiration for the data (specified by the time-to-live variable) after which the data is considered invalid.
This allows the administrators of the child zone to move or alter their name servers without altering the parent zone's configuration files, provided the address listed in the stub line is still valid.

 BIND Name Service Overview
As a result, the slave servers transfer the zone contents continuously, and the name servers spend more time transferring the entire zone even when the change to the zone is minor.
Incremental zone transfer solves this problem by allowing slave name servers to inform their master servers about the version of a zone they currently hold, and to request just the changes to the zone between that version and the current version.
BIND allows you to enter host names that are not fully qualified (that is, host names that do not contain every label from the host to the root and end with a dot), because typing complete domain names is cumbersome.

Slave schedules are a valuable source for the researcher attempting to bridge the gap between slavery and freedom as well as for who were free before the Civil War.
The 1850 and 1860 forms contain the same data for each person; name, age, sex, color, whether slave or free, marital status, place of birth, month of death, occupation, disease or cause of death and number of days ill.

DNS is the protocol through which names are mapped to IP addresses, and vice versa.
In the slave case, the zone information is transferred from the master name server for the particular zone, and saved in the file specified.
If and when the master server dies or is unreachable, the slave name server will have the transferred zone information and will be able to serve it.
