WHS setup informs me that I can either get a new domain name through their wizard, or transfer my domain to a supported registrar and then they can configure it for me. Does anyone know if it is possible to manually configure the domain name to point to my home server through without transferring to a Microsoft-approved registrar?
I guess I'm curious as to whether Microsoft simply manages name-server references for the domain name and can only do that with some agreed partners, or whether they do something more complicated for routing traffic to the home server perhaps some sort of VPN? I potentially don't know what I'm talking about here. You bought the domain already. You need a DNS host to point the domain at. At the DNS Host you'll need to configure a record, like myserver.
You already have your router configured to forward the IP to your server. In Professional Administration we usually do all this stuff manually, no "convenient" wizard to do it for us. My thought would be, specifically because they're talking about registrars, that they are just managing domain names.
From the research I've done it looks like they might also offer a signed certificate, which really isn't that big of a deal for most home use.
