Unfortunetely, i don't understand. &nbsp;I'm hosting my site. &nbsp;I have 1 static ip address from my ISP. &nbsp;I have an IIS5 server. &nbsp;How would i host multiple sites off of that one ip address. &nbsp;You may have to dumb down the answer for me, i'm new in the WEB page hosting area.

Think of it this way<br />
Say you have an ip address of 1.2.3.4<br />
the dns would convert that to something more english for example www.domain.com<br />
This relationship is one to one

<div>
okay so then how would i do this<br />
<br />
1.2.3.4 is mydomain.com<br />
and 1.2.3.4 is mydomain2.com<br />
<br />
so 2 domain names 1 ip address and the dns server figures this out?<br />

Host multiple sites off of one IP address

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an auto configuration protocol used on IP networks and an extension of the Bootstrap Protocol. DHCP allows for computers to be configured automatically to communicate with each other over an IP network without the need for manual setup by a network administrator. The implementation of DHCP relies on a DHCP server to hand out network configuration information to DHCP-capable clients that request an IP address (and other information required or useful in communicating with other devices on an IP network). In addition to an IP address, common configuration information served over DHCP includes a default gateway, subnet mask and DNS sever(s).

DHCP

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.
