Hosting rails with domain name on leased server

Rails
1

Hello,
I have developed a rails application and i have a leased server from a
company called poundhost. I have purchased a domain name from another
company.

Presently i use mongrel to run my application from the leased server but
i have have to type in the address like http://217… to reach the
rails application.

What should I do to use the domain name that i purchased from other
compnay to connect to my rails application?

Thank you.

IP addresses are mapped to host names via DNS – the Domain
Name System. Your hosting provider or domain registrar should
have information about setting that up.
