Very important (DNS and WEB Servers (IIS 6.0))

This question concerns IIS 6.0, DNS servers and domain names.

First questoin:

Is there a way to register a domain name on your DNS server for Web server instead of registering the domain name in some kind of a web page.
Example: if i don't want to register a domain name on some kind of web page (like: dot.tk, register.com or networksolutions.com). Can i use my dns server instead of that. Can i make my dns server to give to my web server a domain name so that my site will be accessible to public ( like: other people browsing the web).

Second question:

I am trying to get an e-mail domain name for my POP3 server. The server is configured properly.

THANKS FOR HELP.

 

You have to deal with one of the Internic approved companies to register a domain name if you intend to have it available to the public.

 

DNS

So as i understood that it is the only way i can make my web server available to public. From that i get that DNS server instlled on mt sistem is functioning only for my intranet and not for internet.

Ok here is my question to you Newt:
So if there is no other way to make my web server to be accessible to public other than the way you told me than how do these companies that give you a domain name function? How do they give a domain name to their sites and how to they give to other people domain names? I always wanted to know that and if you can make it very clear i will be very thankfull.

 

aram755 - the word in blue and underlined in my earlier post, Internic, is a link to a site that includes a FAQ with the information you asked about and quite a bit more.

 

Thanks i found the information i was looking for

Newt thank you very much and sorry for being annoying. I did not look throughout the whole web page. And when i saw you second reply i went back and found what i was looking for.


Thanks. And i like this place very much.
