But I think that this is just a hack to answer your question in short.<br />
If the given IP adrress is from your ISP, (s)he also should have given you a unique full quallified domain name (<a href="http://www.lonley.net" rel="ugc">www.lonley.net</a>).<br />
To do such IP to name translation usually DNS is used, at least your ISP does it.<br />

If it is an official IP, this IP and the corresponding domain is defined by your ISP. You may just alter the hostname.<br />
<br />
Look out for a ISP which can give you a domain name of your choice, getting a IP of your choice will be very hard.<br />
