Is it just a hobby site or your primary one? If it is the latter, have you considered 1) Whether you have enough bandwidth 2) If your network speed is fast enough 3) You have adequate security in place 4) WIll your PC and net be up 24/7 5) You have adequate backup in place > but dont know how to link my dynamic ipaddress with domain name. can any one > of you help me?

So, you will have to sign up with dyndns or no-ip, which will track your IP address and thus update your hostname registered with them with your current iP. You can point your own domain as a CNAME to your registered hostname on one of those services. And to be able to do this, you might need to sign up with services like everydns or freedns In my case, I have home.mehulved.com pointing to my home PC. But, it's much easier for me since I have a static IP. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
