Go to http://www.networksolutions.com/ You will see a form like the one below: Most likely this will be a NEW host registration (NOTE: This is seperate from the regular domain registration.  You must already have the "myserver" portion registered) The email address must be one of the contacts for the domain. Hostname is likely going to be ns1.myserver.com , ns.myserver.com, admin.myserver.com.  This of course depends on how you set up your DNS. IP Address needs to correspond to the IP address that you used when you set up your DNS.
