a server is a remote computer that sends out and receives information over the internet as opposed to a client which will only get stuff from the server.
DNS is how the internet keeps track of all the traffic thru a number system. each server/computer must have an address and has to register it wwith the DNS server
A registar is an owner of a web space/site/server, you have to ofificaily say that you are on the net and pay a fee.

On internet:
Server is the computer where the data is exsits. There are several servers providing lots of data to people on internet.
DNS is that computer which tells your computer how to reach a particular server. So every time you type in a website name, it goes to the DNS and it will then direct your PC to the particular server.
Registrar is that organisation who registers the unique domain (website) names on internet

Registrar registers your domain name and assigns DNS servers to tell the internet about it
DNS servers answer questions from the net about your domain and tell them what server you are on
The server is where your pages are kept
