Went through and registered a domain with joker.com and 
when it cam time to put in the DNS servers it asked for 
host name and IP well all I had was an IP.  so I put in 
the ns.domainname.com and then the IP for both the 
primary and secondary servers.  Well I think I am all 
set up but when I go to look at my settings there is no 
nameservers listed.  So I went to modify/add the 
nameservers and it only allows a hostname and not IP.  
Well I do not have a hostname name yet, just the IP.

Am I missing something?

One other thing, I noticed that Network solutions will 
let you tranfer your domains over to them for $15 plus 
add an additional year.  So one could register a domain 
at joker.com for about $20 (24 euro) for two years 
trasfer it to Network solutions for $15 and have a 
domain with network solutions for 3 years for about $35.
