Allright, let's continue step by step, based on the above.

Q5:
a) Open a Windows command window.

b) Type "nslookup adm138"
The last line of the response is an IP address.  What is it ?

c) Type "nslookup www.fmdreports.vcu.edu"
The last line of the response is an IP address.  What is it ?


Q6:
when the users now type the following URL in their browser :
http://www.fmdreports.vcu.edu
what page do they see ?

Is it the same page as when you type this URL in your browser :
http://adm138
