Gordon at work asks me what is happening with www.frozenchicken.com. If you hit the site, then you get the Google search interface. This is because of the DNS configuration for the domain:
challenger:~# host www.frozenchicken.com www.frozenchicken.com is an alias for www.google.com. www.google.com is an alias for www.l.google.com. www.l.google.com has address 66.102.7.147 www.l.google.com has address 66.102.7.99 www.l.google.com has address 66.102.7.104 www.frozenchicken.com is an alias for www.google.com. www.google.com is an alias for www.l.google.com. www.frozenchicken.com is an alias for www.google.com. www.google.com is an alias for www.l.google.com.
You can see that www.frozenchicken.com is an alias for www.google.com, which in turn points to what is presumably my local cluster.
So why do all the links of the Google page then point via www.frozenchicken.com? Well, because they’re relative URLs, they use the hostname from the browser.
