If you are some of the guys who dont want to waste you money in building your website, Here is elaborated guide to set up your free domain and email.
A guide to set up http://mydomain.com.np and a email mail@mydomain.com.np
First you need to register yourdomain.com.np at http://www.mos.com.np.
but before doing that you should do the following:
[Notes: If the website is personal you need to use your name in the domain, otherwise it will be rejected. A sample coverletter for you has been written below the article. You need to submit it with your details at the Mecentile Building, Durbarmarg.]Go to http://www.freehostia.com/
register an account for a free username and password
In the Hosted Domains add your domain that you registerd in the mos.com.np site ie mydomain.com.np
Register for a domain. Fill the form. In the nameserver field of the form copy the following values
dns1.freehostia.com / IP: 66.40.52.47
dns2.freehostia.com / IP: 66.40.66.152
Now you need to submit the necessary document to Mercentile office (at Durbarmarg) and wait until the domain gets activated.
In the mean time we will set up our new site and email addreess.
Freehostia provides free incoming email but you cannot send email from here so we will use gmain instead.To setup email go to http://www.google.com/a/
Register for google apps (free) with your mydomain.com.npUse Manage Domain>Service settings and activate the Email
In Setting>Email of google apps change URL of web address to http://mail.mydomain.com.npNow goto freehostia.com
In custom DNS records change MX of mydomain.com.np value to ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM (MX stands for mail exchange)
Again go to ustom DNS records andchange ip number of A record of mail.mydomain.com.np to ghs.google.com
Thats all. You have also set up the email address for youself.It will take 2-3 days to update all the server in the planet for your email and domains
PART 3Set up a content management system for your site
Go to freehostia.comInstall Joomla 1.5 listed in Web tools> Elephant free scripts
------------
RUN>CMD>Ping mydomain.com.np each day until you get the reply.
------------
visit http://mydomain.com.np to see your website
visit http://mydomain.com.np/administrator to administer the content of your site (if you have installed joomla 1.5)
visit http://mail.mydomain.com.np to access your email mail@mydomain.com.np (with all cool gmail features)
