In order to register a domain, you will need to go to the web site of a domain registrar, such as Gandi.net, Register.com, or Network Solutions.com. There, you will enter your desired domain. After a search to determine availability, you will be given the opportunity to register or reserve the domain.
If using Network Solutions registration service, please select the Tech-Savvy (also called ISP-Hosted in some sections of the site) option. The "Fast-Track" option will map the domain to their name servers and we will not be able to service it. Additionally the "Fast-Track" and "Essentials" options cost more.
Important: When you register your domain please specify the following two name servers:
NS1.ESKIMO.COM 204.122.16.8 NS2.ESKIMO.COM 204.122.16.9 Required Information

The above information must be included with your payment in order for us to process your virtual domain request.
Virtual domains are mapped to either a dial access or remote shell account. We need to know the login of that account in order to build the virtual domain. Also, if your shell account expires, the files will be removed and the virtual domain will no longer function.
By default, the domain will be mapped to "public_html" in your directory. If the domain has adult content, it will be mapped to "adult_html". Please let us know in advance if your domain will contain adult content.
Your domain may be mapped to a subdirectory under "public_html" or "adult_html" in order to allow multiple virtual domains to be mapped to a single account or to allow your personal web page to have content that is different from your virtual domain. If you wish your virtual domain to be mapped to a subdirectory please be sure to include that directory name.
Normally we will process your virtual domain request the day that payment is received.
