I bought some domain names from some random place and I want it so when people go to http://mysite.com they get forwarded to my server @ a certain IP. Do I need any special domain name server or what? I want it so if they go to http://mysite.com it stays that way, it doesn't physically forward them to like http://234.23.32.233/ Know what I mean?

I think what you want is a redirect.

That's one example of a redirect.

PunkPuke, are you asking about how to setup domain name servers?

NVM, I found a place who has a free domain name server service. Works awesome. Thanks anyway.
