Comment EasyDNS for self-serve DNS administration (Score 1) 334
I've had great success with a company called easydns.com. You register your domain name with them, and they pass it through to Network Solutions who bills you. The great thing is they provide your DNS services for you, so you don't have to run BIND. I need this because I want to run my own servers off my cable modem connection (which is not static IP) with a real domain name. If I reboot my machine and my IP changes, I can update it at the easydns.com website and it will propogate in as little as an hour (you have full control over your SOA values, and I put my TTL as low as an hour.)
It is also a good service for people who don't want to run BIND but also don't want to call their ISP tech supp each time they want an A record added or MX record changed. Check it out - it's $25 per year per domain, on top of the $35/year netsol charges.
On top of all this, easydns runs their site using Linux / PHP! They also have a very clean, easy to use interface with NO AD BANNERS! How can you not support a company like that!
[BTW I am not affiliated at all with them, I just like to promote goodness when I find it]
