i have successfully created a domain called :: FMCR :: Console Repairs :: using co.nr but now i wanted it to be www.fmcr.co.uk so i made fmcr.co.uk with windows server 2008 using dcpromo. i am new to server 2008 (or any version of windows server tbh)

 

i tried browsing to fmcr.co.uk (i know its not in use as you can buy it from any hosting website) and its still not in use...

 

how can i host it to the internet using windows server? also how can i add my html files to it? and how do i create an email address for it? (how would i access these emails?)

 

cheers

ps. im new here and new to windows server so sorry if i sound like a noob but i am an expert (literally) with vista, xp, office, vb, program code, repairs etc and run my own business modding and repairing consoles, computers, mobiles and ipods (on fmcr which is why i want fmcr.co.uk) so i should be able to pick it up quite fast

i thought you used windows server to make the domain? how does windows server no if the domain is mine or not? what if i put google in? i thought the point of windows server was to create the domain?

You buy the domain.

You setup Windows 2008 DNS and create a zone for the domain you purchased.

You assign an IP to the domain in DNS.

Create a directory for the domain files.

Open IIS manager and add the domain to the server.

 

If you don't buy a domain Windows 2008 will not create it.
