Hi everyone,
This is my first time trying to do this so I'm an absolute novice. I just recently register for a domain name for my website. Now that my domain name has been successfully register and given an IP address. How do I go about using my IIS web server to map to the host name? Do I used their given IP address or do I use my GTE given IP address. And if so, what are the steps. Can anyone show me?Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks.

you bought a url right. while buying the urls you must have entered some dns entries. right. if not tell me with whom did you buy your urls. I have 40 urls which i bought from networksolutions. but it gave me an options of dns server name and ip address at that time. which at that time i gave just a vague entry but now i have got it changed to my own dns servers running at my end.
the crux is you need your own dns servers or someone running dns server having your domain's entry.
you also need to point this change to your internic that is through networksolutions or the guy you bought your domainname from.
