Hi,
That all depends;
If your free website is a full virtual web site (not likely) then all you
have to do is point your domain at it.
If it is a subweb off of somebody else's domain (like
www.geocities.com/heartland/4435/myweb) the your free domain registrar has
to redirect any visitors to your free web site. If your registrar
can't/won't do this then unless you can find a free redirector service your
SOL. Often you only get what you pay for ;-)
BTW, often these registrars that don't delegate put ads over the top of
your site. Some also will delegate if you pay them a fee.
