Hi,
i've got a Win2k advanced server and i bought myself a domain. does smb. know a good tutorial of how to get the domain directed to my dynamic IP address and how to setup a DNS server or get a NS entry somewhere else? (i need 2 of them for the domain)
thx 4 helping :)
With a dynamic IP you'll need to use a program to update the dns server everytime you connect to the internet. Tedious process. DNS2Go is a free service but thats not really what you're looking for.
isn't there some kind of tutorial for those things? i mean there are a LOT of domains in the world...there has to be something like that isn't it?
btw. thx 4 the dns2go tipp
DNS2Go is no longer free, unfortuneately.
Can't you just pay your ISP for a fixed ip address and DNS service?
for the fix IP address i could do it, but for the ns-entry it would cost a lot more/month :(
Damn, was going to use that somedayQuote:

Generally comps with http sites are big comps that have a lot of bandwidth and are permanantly on the net. Haven't come across one that isn't.Quote:

You have to register with a domain name register for other people to find your domain, unless they specify your ip address in their list of dns servers. See there are a hand full of these internic domain name registers, which are sort of the root of the internet. You have to register with one of them so that your domain name resolves to your ip address.
