Custom Server IP? - Zack9764 - 05.06.2011

How can I make my server IP whatever I want it to be? Here's a couple examples of what other, more popular, servers did:

server.ls-rp.com:7777
server.pr-rp.com:7777

Buy a domain name, then edit the zone records to your server IP.

server.website.com > 217.18.70.206

First you need an domain, then add an c-name record.

I've always found a A record works best.

You mean buy a domain, make the name etc. server.myserver.com:7777 and like when you buy a domain it will tell you to set your referral URL that exactly takes you to your website/homepage but instead add your IP Address? I really don't understand. Am I right?

You first get a domain, open the DNS records then create an "A" record, use the word "server" in the HOST NAME textbox. Then write your server's IP in the IP Address textbox (without your port (normally :7777 part)). Click "Apply" or something alike, give it a few minutes to take effect and then you may try to add it.

Example: server.domain.com:7777 or use your own port if it isn't 7777.

Alright. Thanks. I think I understand, and I see your signature, REP+.

Or you could use http://www.no-ip.com/ which doesn't require the purchase of a domain-name.
