Service Name

One of the most important choice you will make when ordering a service is your service name. The name you pick will be final as once a service has been created with that name, to change it, your service will need to be re-created from scratch. Sadly not all names are available. We do have a lot of services running at any given time, so there can often be a service already running with your name sadly.

Another important reason why chosing your service name is so important is it will determine your server IP. So rather than you connecting using 111.111.111.111, instead we let you connect using service_name.playat.ch. For example, if you chose yourname as your service name, then your service IP will be yourname.playat.ch.
(You can also use a custom domain instead of the provided server IP if you wish. You can find details on how to link up a 3rd party nameserver here).
