Is there a difference between MSnews.microsoft.com and news.microsoft.com?
I use news.microsoft.com.
One is an 'alias' for the other:
| 08/27/09 17:40:39 dns news.microsoft.com
| Canonical name: msnews.microsoft.com
| Aliases:
| news.microsoft.com
| Addresses:
| 207.46.248.16
But I prefer to use the 'canonical' name, rather than the alias:
| 08/27/09 17:40:33 dns msnews.microsoft.com
| Canonical name: msnews.microsoft.com
| Addresses:
| 207.46.248.16
As you can see, either points to the same physical host.
