_________SWAT MAGAZINE ISSUE TWENTY SIX FEBRUARY 2000 __________ / \___________________________________________/ \ / How To Get Unlimited Free UK Domain Names \ / by the Anarchist Lemming \ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ever heard of an ISP called Freenetname? They give you a free UK domain name (.org.uk or .co.uk) when you sign up with them as your free ISP. The only disadvantage is that you can only register 1 site per account. Needless to say, there is an easy way to get around their security which prevents you from registering multiple sites. After you've signed up and registered your first site, go through thre online process again. It will probably tell you "you can only register one account with Freenetname". This is because it has scanned your connection to your ISP. e.g."luser@aol.com". To fool it into thinking you're a different person, just sign up with a different free ISP and connect to the site through that one. After you've gone through the process again and you get to the screen where it tells you to download the software, DON'T. It will override your existing Freenetname account and/or probably crash your browser. Instead, since you've already entered a username and password, all you need is the dial-up settings, which you can configure manually. They will be the same as your existing Freenetname account, but in case of any problems, they are: Phone number: 0845 0796889 POP3 mail (incoming): mail@freenetname.co.uk SMTP mail (outgoing): smtpmail@freenetname.co.uk Your account will be "whatever@freenetname.co.uk", and don't forget to name it something different to your existing Freenetname account. You will now be able to receive and send mail from both accounts by connecting to just one, and upload your website using the same connection. Repeat at will to get potentially unlimited domain names! The only catch is that to receive your mail from all your websites, you still have to connect to one Freenetname account. But Freenetname is no worse than any other free ISP. BTW you can remove the other ISP you registered with now! NO HARM -=Anarchist=- -=Lemming=- www.hellnet.org.uk
