Hey sparky... Not to be rude.. (aw, fsck it, I will be)  But even tho I am
not on RR i am almost positive yer not allowed to run SOme services...
(Like HTTPd, and FTPd) so reg'ing a domain might be pointless....  ANd I
tend to think it's just not allowed...

But alas... YOu're IP addry is also prolly Dynamically assigned.. and well
while you might reg iamagimp.com today.. when the DHCP server spews...
you're going to be updating more than a bit.

Bottom line.. Don't host your Web, or FTP or 31337 mp3 site offa your
cable modem... GO find a nice cheap 8.85 a month Web hosting service...

And if you can't figure out the internic forms.. you REALLY shouldn't be
trying to run a domain... :-)

Just my opinion tho.. and It *is* jaded. :-)
