The idiots Guide for getting a Free No-Ip domain, with Dns (A)
Benefits of this guide:
To start off
1. First of all you need to register for http://www.no-ip.com/ (this is the easy part trust me )
2. Once you have registered Log in to your account on the left hand side of the website you should see a menu named "Your NO-IP", on this menu you should see things such as Hosts/Redirects and Plus Manged DNS etc.
3. Expand Hosts/Redirects by clicking on the link, this should bring up a sub menu. You need to click add this is the part where you get to choose and set up your website URL.
Setting up your Domain Part 1, Hostname Information
1. Ok you should see a bunch of boxes you need to fill in, The first one will probably appeal to you the most hostname: this is when you choose the name of your board for example: thesuperforums
2. Underneath the hostname box you should see a dropdown box with a list of URL extentions, its entireley your choice which one you choose. Personally i like the .sytes.net URL extention.
3. Host Type: select DNS Host (A)
4. IP Address: The IP address in the box will automatically be set to your IP address, you need to change this to the IP addres to which server you are on.
Here is a list of the different IP's for each server:
Server IP Address
s1 67.18.37.4
s2 67.18.37.5
s3 67.18.37.6
s4 67.18.37.7
s5 Not public
s6 69.93.183.36
s7 67.18.37.8
s8 67.18.37.9
s9 70.85.81.228
s10 70.84.190.114
s11 70.85.169.210
s12 70.85.240.178
s13 67.15.181.31
s14 67.15.4.42
s15 67.15.129.13
note you can tell which server you are on by the first bit of your forum URL eg. s13.invisionfree.com
once you have selected your IP, copy and paste it on to the IP box.
4. dont worry about the other boxes
and to finish off click create host
Final Part
1. Log on to your Forum AdminCP
2. Under InvisionFree Network >> Click Domain Manager
3. Scroll to the Add Domain Name and type in the domain name you have just create eg: reallyniceforum.sytes.net then click submit And your done your domain is added!
Note, it may take up to 5 mins for No-IP to set up your domain, so if this doesent work try a few mins later
4. Although you have set up your domain you still need to set it to be your primary domain,
so on the Select Primary Domain Name scroll down to your domain ie: reallyniceforum.sytes.net and then click set primary domain
You should now be able to access your forum from the new Domain that you have set up
Hope this helped all you newbies!
