OK, I've had time to sift through all the advise, and again, thanks to everyone for the responses. So now just to confirm I'm not lost, just befuddled;
I get one Main domain name and unlimited Sub domains, so if I sign up with lan.on-rev.com I can subsequently create kc.lan.on-rev.com and dj.lan.on-rev.com. I just want to confirm that Sub domains are added to the left - seems important when picking a name. >From these domains and sub domains I can create unlimited email addresses like [email protected] and [email protected] as well as [email protected] (note the use of the sub domain in this case)? Then we come to Add On Domains. I understand that I can register 'allthe goodnamesaretaken.com' with someone like GoDaddy or Dotster and during registration indicate that I want to use ns1.on-rev and ns2.on-rev as the actual name servers. I see RunRev used GoDaddy to register on-rev. Can I then create Sub domains of these Add On Domains? Like ' almost.allthegoodnamesaretaken.com'? If so, do I need to register these as well through GoDaddy or will this simply be something I can do with 'Addon Domain Manager' or 'Subdomain Manager' at on-rev? What is the situation with email for these Add On Domains? I see GoDaddy provides free email with the Domains you register, but can I move it AND control it all from on-rev, ie everything in the one place? Or would it be better to leave these with GoDaddy; use GoDaddy's MBs rather than on-rev's MBs? Will I be able to create multiple email addresses for each Add On Domain and any sub domains I create or is this only a feature of the on-rev.comdomains? Are the unlimited Mailing Lists for the on-rev domain only or will I be able to create a mailing list for Add On Domains? I understand that Add On domain name annual renewal will still need to be handled with GoDaddy, not on-rev? - Scratch that, I see George C Brackett posted that on-rev may eventually take up that baton. A possible use I have for Rev Server Scripting Language, I like to try and sync my iCal with my wife's computer when I'm away, but not having a fixed IP address it is impossible unless I have her on the phone telling here exactly what I need. I'm hoping I could create a Rev Standalone that would start up every time she starts her computer and send it's IP + LAN address to my on-rev account. Then all I hope to do is access my on-rev account to discover what my wife's current full IP address is. Do you think it is possible to have lan.on-rev act as a mini name sever? Any request to a particular lan.on-rev page be redirected to the Public or Sites folder of my wife's dynamic IP addressed computer? Could this be something like a 'HTTP 302 redirect' ? or is this Domain Forwarding & Masking? I notice GoDaddy offers Forwarding and Masking but on-rev doesn't mention it. Basically I see I have 4 wants. A Rev centric address - would be myname.on-rev.com A family orientated address - registered through GoDaddy or similar A hobby orientated address - registered through GoDaddy or similar A Private address - somehow use one of the above to discover and point/redirect to a computer connected at home to a dynamic IP Address. So as you can tell, it's as clear as mud to me at the moment, any insights again appreciated ;-) Getting closer but basically I think my minds made up. I just want to look less foolish when I take the plunge ;-) _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
