["Eric S. Standlee" <fwiw3980@example.com>]

I met a man who bought a series of ip addresses and, as best as I can
tell, nameserves them up ?randomly? on a first-come basis as different
names...

For instance his address is koji@example.com or www.kumamo.to .

I am interested in how this is possible.  I understood that you have to
one-for-one ip address to domain name...

Before anyone flames me and tells me to get the networking book, I know
that is a good idea, but since I cannot just up and go to a bookstore and
find one anywhere around here I have been procrastinating.

Please, just give me a hint as to how this is done.  Sounds like a good
business I might be able to start on the side from home.

By the way, I mentioned linux and he says he uses it.  No chance he is a
TLUGger???

TIA,
