Agreed. Just to see again, I tried it on my wife's new computer with
Chrome and it showed:
Windows Server on aws.amazon.com
Windows Server 2012 at microsoft.com
www.winserver.com
Am I off-base to suggest that the IETF can address this "dotless" domain
searching confusion with a INFO or BCP suggesting software *should*
consider DNS solution first over non-DNS solutions?
It raises a fairness question as the method of communications becoming
closer to obsolete from the user's standpoint, i.e. no protocol is
necessary to type (hence via the browser, HTTP is the default protocol).
I am now wondering what if we tried to add a dotless winserver zone into
our DNS. Will the software even allow it?
