Understanding
DNS and Name Servers:
This is an area, which causes a great deal of
confusion among both webmasters and end user clients.
Before we go any further, let's look at this quick
analogy: DNS can be considered something similar to that of a
phone book.
When you move from one location to another, your
last name stays the same, but your phone number may change.
In order to point your name to the new phone
number, you must contact the telephone service provider, which
will assign you the new phone number.
In addition, they update all directory information
data basis to reflect you as pointing to this new phone number.
