Hello everybody,

I bought a domain name on Hover.com and wanted to know how I can connect my homelab to it. So far I've got the domain connected to Cloudflare but I have absolutely no idea how to go about getting everything set up on the networking side of things. Does anybody have some useful tips/guides/videos that could help?

Unless your home has a static ip, you will need a dyndns updater to keep your home ip synced to a domain. Start there.
