Common DNS, if the domain you are trying to 'access' doesn't exist, it can't resolve.

Gotta have an IP basically behind it to resolve to.

Is your DNS configured properly? Does the domain name you're using point to the IP your server is running on?

Example: You called your server irc.party.com. You don't own party.com, and didn't set up irc.party.com to point to your computer. party.com, obviously, wont work for you.

You havnt got to, but it does help. There are free services like no-ip.org and dyndns.com but you can only use theyre domains for free.
