Page Title
Body You can usually manage the DNS for your domain through the company you registered with. For instance, Go Daddy provides tool called "Total DNS". If your registrar does not provide DNS hosting, you might check out "DNS Made Easy":http://dnsmadeeasy.com. No matter who does your DNS, the steps are basically the same. Create a new "A Record" pointing the new host name to the IP address of your Rails Machine. When you create a record for yourdomain.com, don't forget to add one for "www"...in case your visitors still use that. If you need to check the IP address of your server, you can <code>ping</code> it, or use <code>host</code>, or run <code>ifconfig eth0</code> on the server itself.
