I may need a little help here .... I have used FTP with my
other servers to login and access my pages but it was
already setup ... I can probably figure it out but might
have some questions.

Can I dialup your server and access the pages by direct
login?  Everything is long distance to me from where i
live anyway.

I own the domain name 'onegod.org'.  I would like to have
you notify INTERNIC that it should be sent to your
server.  Now this part is new to me.  I understand that
messages sent to onegod.org will then be forwarded to you
but is it possible for messages I then send from you to
show that they are coming from onegod.org and not from
eli.wariat ?

My question then is can my web page with you be setup so
it is recognized as www.onegod.org?

I am setting up a local bbs ... it will have a home school
theme as well as a oneness outreach.  I want to offer my
users internet email .. the interfact (I think) will be
UUCP.  So what I need is onegod.org forwarded to you and a
UUCP account to pick up email and newsgroups if possible.

You know it is a small world!  Bro. Amington was the
assistant to the Pastor here for a year or so sometime
ago.  I did not know that he was still in CA!

I can probably find out where he is though!
