FAQ
A Canonical Name or CNAME record is a type of DNS record that maps an alias name to a true or canonical domain name. CNAME records are typically used to map a subdomain such as www or mail to the domain hosting that subdomain’s content. For example, a CNAME record can map the web address www.example.com to the actual web site for the domain example.com.

The A-record is the most basic and the most important DNS record type. They are used to translate human friendly names such as "excite.com" into IP-addresses (machine friendly numbers). A-records are DNS server's equivalent of the hosts file - a simple domain name to IP-address mapping. When multiple A-Records are defined for the same name, DNS will use Round Robin to distribute these records.

A name server is a web server that has DNS software installed on it, particularly a server that is managed by a web host that is specifically designated for managing the domain names that are associated with all of the hosting provider's accounts.
Name servers are often called DSN servers as well, and this is likely the origin of all of the confusion associated with name servers and the DNS.
Every web site has two name servers to which it is pointed, and this process must be done by the webmaster upon purchasing a domain and a hosting account.
