Many people asking me that How to use DNS. So, here you go!


Step 1 : Create an account in www.noip.org (It's a totally free service!)

Step 2 : Login in to your account.

Step 3 : Once you have logged in to your account. You should see the page like this. Just click on the "Manage Hosts" tab.



Step 4 : Click on "Add a Host".

Step 5 : Fill the "Hostname" and fill up your NEW server IP address.
Note: Don't use port in the "IP Address" Section.



Step 6 : Now click on the "Add Host".



Step 7 : Login into the GameTracker account and open up your server page.(You must have claimed your server to use this feature)

Step 8 : Go to the "Manage" tab.And search for "DNS" tab.

Step 9 : Now, Put the DNS name and click on "Update DNS".




And That's Done!

Notes:

1) DNS will only work if your have the same port.
2) You have to claim both server in order replace the rank old server to new server.

If you have claimed both the old as well as new server then you will see the migrate option on the new server.
