I was wondering how to connect a server or hosting to a .bit domain?

You need to change your DNS server setting on your computer:

I guess you have some namecoins and don't know what to do with them? :D

I don't have any namecoin, but I did look in to it when it first came out. I am a web designer and I figured it might be time I dabbled with the .bit domain before I get outdated.
:P
Besides, it wouldn't be a bad idea to clone my websites for the .bit community.

However, I'm not having issues viewing or connecting to .bit from my browser, I was wondering how to host a website from my web server.

You will need your Servers IP connected to your .bit domain. Same as with any other DNS.

They have a wiki that explains how to setup a .bit domain.

Hope that helps.
