I now found more info at www.recordholders.org: "The longest host name ever used" www.tax.taxadvice.taxation.irs.tax-services.taxrepresentation.taxpayhelp.internalrevenueservice.audit.taxes.com A jolly 111 characters long! "The longest domain names are names like" halloffameofinternationalincredibleuniquerecordsoutof36thousand.com (DNS RFC says 63 letters is the maximum number of letters that can be registered as a domain name.) I'll stop here, as much fun as it is. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
