I think that using the hierarchy type of domain name is logical.
Something like hotel-dieux.ve2cbs.ampr.org
where hotel-dieux is the site name ve2cbs is the club callsign and the rest is obvious.
This would be the real dns name I would use for the club I am the secretary and technical
support.
But after that being said. Who would be able to control those dns? There should be a way
to ID the tecnical support staff for the club call sign and those named as technical
support be able to do the dns for the club.
In fact even a single user should be able to point another user as able to control the dns
section of his/her allocation in case they are both sharing the same ip space for whatever
reason, or the first does not know enough or understand enough to do it all.
But in any case all the ip allocation should have something like X.Y.ampr.org where Y is
ALWAYS the call sign of the club or individual that requested the ip space. and X can be
whatever that club or individual want.

I understand it's not a repeater, that's just the best analogy I have. We have a
similar system here, but it's not as well-known or widespread as hamnet.
Usually, any DNS name that resolves to an IP is equivalent. Can you elaborate on why you
couldn't use a subdomain on a callsign?
Furthermore, could you address the questions regarding non-ham (IBM) use of this system?

Hamnet pop isn’t a radio repeater. It’s a pop for hamnet. We call the 44 net hamnet here
and it runs on wireless links.
It’s a complete wireless mesh network with many p2p links providing network connectivity
to other hams/repeaters etc.
So just adding a subdomain before a callsign isn’t going to cut the needs.

Chris: Sounds good, thank you.
Terence,
I am not the most familiar with hamnet, although at some point, there has to be a ham
involved, right? The way repeaters typically work here is that a ham or group of hams
speaks to a building owner and asks for an agreement to host a repeater and a little bit
of rooftop space. That repeater is then usually referred to by the callsign of the ham(s)
who maintain it and have the agreement with the building owner.
Forgive me if I'm misunderstanding, but does hamnet usually work in a similar way? If
so, couldn't the site be named
pi90ibm.pd3t.ampr.org<http://pi90ibm.pd3t.ampr.org/>g/>, assuming you are the
maintainer of that site?
If there isn't a ham involved at any step:
- How is it legal use of the amateur bands?
- Is it really a ham radio network at that point?

I see a lot of issues with hamnet pops without clubcallsings and are just commercial
building owners willing to host the housing for a hamnet pop to extend the amprnet
wireless network range.
You do want those site to be recognizable some of those sites can even host services like
remote sdrs.
For example ibm is willing to host a pop for network coverage. To make it recognizable you
can name it pi90ibm. This aint an official callsign. How is one going to verify that?
Did you think about those?
