Hi,

I already set up apache. How do I set it to a domain name? Do I have to buy the name?

Thanx.

Yes, you must first buy a domain name
And then you setup a domain name server and zone file for that domain
Next you setup apache and add a virtualHost directive to apache conf file

There is a body known as internic which has been assigned the responsability of assigning domain names, every provider that sells domain names must purchase them from internic and pay the associated charges.

Here is a list of people that are allowed to sell domains and are Internic Authorized registrars:
