The first thing, to be able to have a host answer up by your domain
name, you will need to have a DNS server pointed to whatever your
IP address is of that server.

If you can get a static IP from your ISP, then they can set up the DNS
records for you to host it on that static IP.  You just have to make
sure that the domain is registered and pointed to there DNS servers.

If you're stuck with a dynamic IP, you might want to look into some
dynamic DNS services out on the net.  There are some free ones and
some that charge.

Hope this helps,
