@tad1073 you use that if you don't have a static IP.

Hi, I like the way you explain things. I think you should update this frequently. I think it would help gain a following.

i could not understand .. why i can`t make my own domain for my serer .. and why i have to buy ?

@koioti11 domains are managed by ICANN and accreddited registrars, so having a server doesn't in any way relate to having a domain. Just like having a computer at home doesn't give you intenet (you need an ISP), just buying a server doesn't give you a domain (or an IP)

@thededicatedserverha Actually... I just got done watching a video of somone setting up a custom domain name without having to pay for it all through the webmin configurations. The only thing is that it was in spanish which I understand but not as good as english. I'll keep looking around.

@thededicatedserverha That's Right. . .also you can pay more or build your own domain server company by asking the goverment office of Telecommunications in your country! It's just a bunch of papers that you have to sign, also some static ip's from your Country ISP's and that's all! Of course this will cost you a little but , in the end of the day you will be able to rent and buy domains!

@koioti11 Their are only a hand full of domain servers out their and like dedi said, they're managed by ICANN. Sorry but you won't ever be able to setup a free .com from your home heh
