Frequently an LDAP server is used to distribute the same kind of information that Hesiod does. However, because Hesiod can leverage existing DNS servers, deploying it to a network is fairly easy. In a Unix-like system users usually have a line in the /etc/passwd file for each local user like: foo:x:100:10:Foo Bar:/home/foo:/bin/sh
DNS-SD (DNS Service Discovery [16]) allows clients to discover a named list of service instances and to resolve those services to hostnames using standard DNS queries. The specification is compatible with existing unicast DNS server and client software, but works equally well with mDNS in a zero-configuration environment.
Before 2001, the in-addr.arpa zones for the private networks [1] were delegated to a single instance of name servers, blackhole-1.iana.org and blackhole-2.iana.org, called the blackhole servers. The IANA -run servers were under increasing load from improperly-configured NAT networks, leaking out reverse DNS queries, also causing unnecessary ...
At one time, Microsoft at least suggested the use of .local as a pseudo-TLD for small private networks with internal DNS servers. For example, support article 296250 [5] included the following option: Make the name a private domain name that is used for name resolution on the internal Small Business Server network.
Multicast DNS (mDNS) is a computer networking protocol that resolves hostnames to IP addresses within small networks that do not include a local name server.It is a zero-configuration service, using essentially the same programming interfaces, packet formats and operating semantics as unicast Domain Name System (DNS).
