One provided by the company.

Ive found the problem it is the password.
Are you sure the www should be there mate?

Lots of these companys use sub-domains.... the subdomain would take the place of "www".

Re: Webhosting for FREE

This is really starting to get to me. I copy and paste exactly as they appear in the email into the fields requested. (The Details)

I then set up my webserver and got this message "The server name or address could not be resolved." What now?

Re: Webhosting for FREE

Juding by the details you've given us, to fill that form in you'd need;

Login : (The username you gave, or they gave you)
Domain : madgamer_4.thefreeserver.net
Password : (That password they provided you in the email)

As homealone said, these may be case sensitive so make sure they're exactly the same.

forget 'free' and pay for a domain name & 'proper' hosting. - imo. Mine costs me around £2 a month.......... - that's nearly (if not really), free

<edit> sorry - wild willy barret moment

Re: Webhosting for FREE

Have they definately confirmed activation of your account yet?

Also check the following;
- Make sure you're not cutting and pasting any blank spaces or html code with your password/username.
- You may need to try variations on the domain name, eg 'thefreeserver.net' or just 'madgamer_4'
