Hey

For a 301 redirect you need to host the domain somewhere, and then create something to perform the redirect.This could be a .htaccess, or you can do it via scripting (e.g. PHP). If you create web space for the domain in your account, you can select standard forwarding (the URL changes to the new URL) or frame forwarding (the original URL stays even though you have moved to a new site) instead of physical hosting (creating web space).  Finally you can usually set the DNS to your registrars, most domain registrars have the facility to set up redirects from their control panel.

Hope this helps
