How to change server name in apache?

How do I link my apache server to my new domain name?

  • I just got my new .com domain name from godaddy.com but I do not want/ need to have it hosted by anyone right now and want to host it with my apache server that I got up and running. ...show more

  • Answer:

    The basic idea is to login on godaddy and in the domain's settings, change the A record to your own IP. This will only work if you have a static IP. If you don't have a static IP, you need to signup for a DynDNS service like noip.com, then redirect your .com domain to the noip subdomain. In both cases you need to enable port forwarding in your router's settings (forward port 80 to your computer's LAN IP).
