The Perfect Server - Ubuntu Hardy Heron (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Server)

[Audre]

Hello all,
Please explain. Do i need to register for a FQDN DNS? the instruction on how to setup ubuntu server on hardy heron is very useful but i am bit confused how to indicate or to use a proper DNS, in the above example.. it says example.com do i have to register my own domain for that? or can i use my existing DNS? if i have one static IP, can i use it to setup for several DNS aliases such as Example.com, example2.com etc or can i added suffix such as server1.mydnsname.com?

Please advise.
