Howdy,

I would like people to join my server using the domain name vice IP. I tried every which way possible and couldnt do it. So I am not sure how its done. Right now in my server.ini I have it bound to the IP. Thanks for any help.....

anydomain that is resolved to the same DNS as the ip you are using can be used.

Alternativly, if you have access to the DNS server your domains records are on you can add a new "A" record that would add a subdomain that will point to the TS server.

For example, if i have a domain somedomain.com for example, and the IP address for the TS server is 12.34.56.78 I can add a "A" record with a subdomain "ts2" that will point to the IP address and then to connect using a domain address you can type in "ts2.somedomain.com"
