You might try one of the many DNS newsgroups such as
microsoft.public.windowsnt.dns for this question.

Some basic info: (This is very a very simplified response. You should check
out newsgroups dedicated to this complex subject)

You need to have a static IP address. Your registrar (such as www.netsol.com
will need that address and will at the top level point DNS services for your
registered name to your home computer DNS IP. You need to be running BIND or
similar DNS utility on your DNS server.

If you don't have a static IP address you can use one of many free services
to map your name to your dynamically assigned IP. These services typically
also provide DNS for static IPs. Services that come to mind are
www.dns2go.com or www.dyndns.org.
