Wamp + Domain pointing question

Hello,

Is there a way to point a domain, such as one purchased from Verizon, to my static IP using Wamp? For some reason I'm unable to find a guide online... EVERYTHING is all dynamic IP or localhost only.

Cheers.


Version of Operating system: Win XP
Version of Wamp Server installed: 2.4 (32bit)
Version of Apache you are running: 2.4.4
Version of MySQL you are running: 5.6.12
Version of PHP you are running: 5.4.16

Yes contact the company you purchased the domain from or using there website, change their DNS server to point www.xxx.com to your IP address.

Then nerver ever turn off your PC ever again.

Thanks for the reply RiggsFolly.

After explaining this, to the client, i've decided to go with another option, but i will remember your answer in the future and for others as well.
