Re: port "resolution" |

If it's a web application listening a non-standard port you must *always*
specify the port number in the URL regardless if you are using an alias name
or not. To use a different name (alias), you utilize what's called a CNAME
record. A CNAME is just a name which maps to another name, vice a host
record (or 'A' record) which maps a name straight to an IP address.

Suppose the FQDN is machineName.companyName.com.
I've a web application using port 22222. I invoke the application as
follows
http://machineName:22222
I'd like to do it as follows:
http://differentNameWithoutPortNumber
How do I accomplish this?
Thank you. |
