First of all, I wanna say that I know how DNS Servers work and also I know about the records in a DNS Zone File!
I'm not an expert but I have some knowledge about them. I'm confused! why?! because I don't know what's the exact difference between hostnames and FQDNs.
I know that some thing like my.example.com. is a FQDN. somebody told me it's a FQDN because of the existance of "dot" at the end of it.
I think the final dot at the end of it reffers to the root dns servers in the world, right?
Is my.example.com a hostname? (note that it's doesn't have any final dots!)
maybe "my" is the hostname?!
Actually i'm confused!
What's the difference between a hostname and a FQDN, guys?!
Sorry, My english isn't very good. excuse me if I made a mistake.
Thanks in advance.
