You will need to locate your Create IP Address in order to change your account settings with Lycos. To locate your Create IP Address please see the steps below:

1. Log in to your Create account
2. Click on "Account" on the top menu
3. Click on "Manage Domain Names & Email"
4. Message will read: "Your site's allocated IP Address: [Your IP Address]” – see image below

Please note, in the example above [Your IP Address] represents where your IP Address will be displayed; this is a series of numbers. You should use this exact IP Address located within your Create account when altering IP settings with Lycos.

To point your domain name to your Create website using Lycos follow these steps*:

1. Log in to your Lycos account at http://www.domains.lycos.com
2. Select "Manage Your Domain" from the left hand menu
3. Under the heading "Domain Settings" click on the "Edit" link for the domain you wish to change
4. Click on the option for "IP Pointing"
5. Delete the number code displayed in the box and replace with your Create IP Address located in your Create account (see 'locate your IP Address’ steps above) and then click on "Save"

*These steps are a guideline and may not remain accurate as outside registrars updates sites regularly, please contact your registrar if uncertain.

If you are having any trouble with this, you should be able to contact your registrar's support team who will be able to assist with this, just paste them the instructions above including your Create IP Address and they will be able to help.

Please note, changing your domains “DNS settings” to point to your website should not affect any email service you may currently have set up with your registrar, and you do not need to make any changes to your email settings.
