The domain part of the URL must be a DNS domainname to be resolved by
the resolver to an IP (v4, v6) address.  No port number must be
specified -- if HTTP then the port must be 80, if LDAP it must be 389.

The local part will be computed from conventions.  For HTTP that means
using a well-known local part.  For LDAP it means doing a standard
search off the base DNs for the namingContexts supported by the server.

This rules out IP addresses.
