I'd ask around for a local provider in Singapore. If you are truly umbituous, you can manage things directly through the InterNIC at http://rs.internic.net/ In any event, registration for a top-level domain, like .com, costs $100 for the first two years. If you want to save time and money, you should confer with your Internet Service provider to see about getting a name under .sg domain, which is likely cheaper and easier. -dan On Thu, Mar 19, 1998 at 10:53:53AM +0800, Alexis wrote: > Hi > > My name is Alexis.
