I have seen urls starting with ww1,www2,www3,..... www8 etc. now my
question is what does wwwn means? How different is it from a url that
starts with www ?

It is just a different sub-domain. No difference at all for the user.

It's a name. It is arbitrary.
> How different is it from a url that starts with www ?
How different is Joe Smith from Jim Smith? www.foo.bar and www1.foo.bar
are two different urls. You might be right in thinking that there is some
connection at some level between them or one might even be an alias of the
other --- but you are not really safe in guessing. The foo.bar part
suggests they are owned by the same entity, but they might refer to servers
on opposite sides of the earth. Sometimes this kind of naming is used for
servers which are supposed to be mirrored, so they have --- in theory ---
exactly the same content, but sometimes not.

Totally wrong. The numbering refers to the data and how it is
obtained.
richard
Another wrong guess.
www.foo.bar and www3.foo.bar are owned by the same person(s).
You are partially correct in that numerous servers are applied to
acquire the data presented. The higher the number, the more complex
the site is.

Please refrain from posting before you've had your morning coffee...
So is my www49583020.foo.bar a *really* complex site?

Well, you do have to type the extra number to obtain the data. :)

No different, just another hostname label, we use it for load balancing
www is the frontend (multiple loadbalancing boxes), which points to www1
www2 actual servers behind it. This way if a server fails the URL
doesn't change or if 1 is heavily loaded the request is sent to another.
Even the www bit doesn't matter, it could be server.domain ,
server1.domain , server2.domain.

Gets you to where? Duh. Same place as www.yahoo.com

Now if evan and beau don't shoot your reply down, then mine was
equally correct wasn't it?
The numbers only refer to a redirect. Same as with a subdomain.
So yes Beau, you could have www495 and it wouldn't matter.

I'm sorry, but coffee won't fix his problem. His reply button
works much much faster than his brain. I think it's a medical
condition and works something like Tourette's.

Not even close.

You seem to be confused about what a subdomain is.
> So yes Beau, you could have www495 and it wouldn't matter.
Oh yes it would. I use subdomains on a couple of my sites, and they do
go to separate places.
As a sample:
http://example.com/ main site hosted in country A
http://www1.example.com/ subsite hosted in country B
http://495.example.com/ subsite hosted in country C
..or not. They could be completely different servers, or simply
subfolders (subdirectories) on the same server as the main.

Looks like a different or new address. Sure it's the real RTS, and not
just a coincidence? "richard" is a common handle on Usenet, among the
Stupid and the Not Stupid alike.

Don't you recognize the style of writing? <g>
And ... note that he initiated the use of the word "STOOOPID" in this
thread. Only RtS would know that. Any other richard would have said
"stupid"... He's also posting in misc.transport.trucking with his new
ID.
[Meat Plow, it is really spelled with zeroes. St00pid. At least, that
is how I first saw it posted years ago.]

A redirect is when a page sends the browser to a new domain.
In these cases, we are talking about a single domain.
> So yes Beau, you could have www495 and it wouldn't matter.
But you claimed the number indicated the page was more complex, and
something about the source of data changing if it was bigger.

Didn't know that; and he'd been using a bogus address.

That's a good point, the stoopid-with-multiple-o's point. And, of course,
I don't do trucking groups. :)
I'm convinced.

Those names have no inherent meaning. www, www1 etc is just a
convention. They are just CNAME or A records on the DNS and can be set
to anything that the domain admin wants them to be. If you wanted to
be contrary you could use yyy.mydomain.com for your website.
why?
