It is used worldwide to drive web sites, ftp sites, irc servers, ISPs, and hundreds of other uses. However, it can't create your own domain name; you have to do that through the InterNIC. It can certainly make use of a name that you've applied for though. :-) Doug White | University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major
