Hi:

I have not found any documentation that specifies whether or not you can 
associate a DNS record to a port #. For instance I have a webserver that 
runs on port 7000, is it possible to do something like this:

voyager.hood.edu:7000           IN      A       144.175.2.16

Is this possible or will I need to enter http://voyager.hood.edu:7000 to 
reach it?
