Well, I got a dedi windows 2003 machine with Plesk 7 Reloaded installed.

I want to establish this server like a complete webhosting company, actually my client needs to run it like a webhosting company and give webspaces to his employees and run some of his other web projects.

KK, I have a domain name addressonweb.com registered via hostingdude. Now, what i want is ...
1. My server's plesk control panel should be acessible via the url : server1.addressonweb.com:8443 (Currently it works with IP number ... xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8443 )
2. Ability to host websites on it. I mean create a new account from plesk, and the domain owner for that account needs to set the nameservers for his domain to ns1.addressonweb.com and ns2.addressonweb.com .

And now, what I have done till moment (nothing much though :P )

1. Its a default state machine with plesk 7 installed. No DNS entries changed/edited etc.
2. I have given the hostname of server as server1.addressonweb.com in plesk control panel settings.
3. Went to my hostingdude domain reseller account, and registered nameservers ns1.addressonweb.com and ns2.addressonweb.com using the IP's I am allocated on the server.

How to proceed ... please help. (Please help in detail, lol , I am a total newbie, just a beginner, I really duno how to move an inch further now :P)

Thanks

first of all y did u choose win 2003 for hosting . linux is the best for hosting .

Anywyz if u want your subdomain to point to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx u must ask ur registrar to do it . or u park ur domain in the same server and create a subdomain in plesk

Well, sorted that out. It was all cool learning about DNS etc.
Anyways, @e-razor, basically am an asp/.net programmer. And am not to start a hosting company, coz I know I can't, lol, I dislike running a one man show, and can't afford a team. This server is for a client who wants me to do some heavy projects for him.
Cheeers
