jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted April 24, 2006 You should go back to the place the Domain name is registered and set the new nameservers accordingly. The information should be according to the information above. Try that and post back here if you need more assistance. It may take as long as 72 hrs to affect your account, so be prepared for a delay of at least 48 hrs as suggested. In order to access the account from your own computer before the nameserver change takes effect, there is information in the Xisto readme file to allow for altering the HOSTS file on your machine.

WindAndWater 0 Report post Posted April 25, 2006 From http://www.freewebhostingarea.com/, the FAQ for http://www.ueuo.com/ You must own the domain. We don't offer free domains but free hosting for already purchased domains. Our inbox is currently 'bombed' with emails like 'Why my domain not working?'. In almost all cases, when we check, domain seems to not be registered or owned by someone else.It sounds like their wording is very ambiguous or confusing. As far as I can tell, they do not provide domain names. You need to buy a domain name from a company (such as https://de.godaddy.com/) for anywhere between $3 and $10. Then you can follow their frequently asked questions or their tech support to set up your domain name servers. Currently http://www.sindhu.com/ seems to be registered through https://www.moniker.com/. If you've indeed registered it with moniker, contact them about setting up your domain name servers. Otherwise, you need to register and pay for a different domain name.

WindAndWater 0 Report post Posted April 25, 2006 I followed your link, filled in information, and got the following: https://www.google.de/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=BwkjVKfAD8uH8QfckIGgCQ&gws_rd=ssl is available on localhost. Attention!!! We only offer free hosting for already registered domains. For domain registration you have to pay a yearly fee to a domain registrar. If you own google.com just fill in the form, confirm your email then change nameservers to: ns1.ueuo.com 72.232.193.162 ns2.ueuo.com 72.232.193.163 Although I'd love to own https://www.google.de/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=BwkjVKfAD8uH8QfckIGgCQ&gws_rd=ssl, the likelihood of me getting it is pretty small. It's their fault that their site is misleading (although they do directly state the caution that I've highlighted in bold). You really do have to pay for a domain name -- there's not really any way around it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spy_charly 0 Report post Posted April 25, 2006 hello buddy!...well i dont want to upset you, when i first registered my domain... was looking for a free web hosting...i got where you got...but you are forced to put ads and those sort of things...what i recomend you to do is to "add-on" your new domain in your Xisto.com account that is for sure even better....thanx to the guys of Xisto!
