Hi,

I am fairly new to Vanilla. It took me awhile to install, but it's
currently running locally on my laptop. I have heard that the
difficulty I underwent installing it isn't comparable to what it's
like installing on a network. This is my goal.

I'm looking into godaddy.com for pricing purposes and, though this
message is Off Topic, I wonder if anybody can explain the difference
of "registering" a domain name and "hosting". Registration for the
domain www.wettowel.com runs approximately $10/year with godaddy.com,
but hosting costs a bit more. To avoid the monthly hosting charges, I
am curious whether assistance in setting up my Vanilla space, so that
my laptop functions as the server with whatever domain name I
eventually end up registering (blanketsin, as wettowel seems to've
already been taken), is supported in this group.
