The invention is based on a name server which maps an object identifier to a terminal identifier. A terminal identifier may be e.g. an MSISDN number and an object identifier may be e.g. a domain name or a URL address. The said mapping enables that a terminal identifier, or in more detail, an object related to the terminal identifier, can be located through the name server by referring the object identifier the object. The referring may be performed via the Internet by using a browser. The referring may also be performed with a SMS or MMS. One of the objectives of the invention is that the owner of a terminal identifier can decide whether the positioning of his/her terminal identifier (e.g. a phone number) is possible or not, and who or what are able to locate the terminal identifier. <IMAGE> |
