A client, a computer-readable recording medium, and method for acquiring a uniform resource identifier are provided. The client includes a message reception unit which receives a plurality of naming authority pointer (NAPTR) records from a domain name service (DNS) server, each of the NAPTR records comprising a URI and an identifier of a user of the URI; and a URI selection unit which chooses one of the URIs respectively included in the NAPTR records by referencing the identifiers respectively included in the NAPTR records. Accordingly, it is possible to choose a URI to be used by a client from among a plurality of URIs included in URI information received from a DNS server.
