If you already have a account with a hosting company then they should take care of this for you as long as you set the nameservers for your domain to your hosting companies nameservers. If not then you will need to set the IP address of your domain using the networksolutions web site.

Check out this link for help with your Network Solutions Account.

I'm sure if you email your webhost, they will take care of this for you.

1) You will have to get your webhosts name servers (usually ns1.webhost.ocm, ns2.webhost.com).
2) Enter them into the domain registerars database so that your domains are pointed to your webhosts name servers.
3) Have your webhost enter your domain in their name server or in apache if they're using virual domains.

Wait 24-48hs for everything to start working.

PS. Noone goes with networksolutions anymore, they are to expensive and they don't even have a good control panel so you can manage your domains. Transfer your domain to www.000domains.com
