It may work differently in different domains, then. The above is the
information I got from the corresponding form at the .mil NIC. And,
yes, I hadn't remembered the host template from non-.mil activity; but
I figured things were changing.
Sorry, I should have added that caveat.
I was only referring to domains registered at internic.net, now
networksolutions.com (i.e. .com, .org, .net, and .edu domains). That
seemed to be what the original poster was asking about.
