Re: [PLUG] dyndns + speakeasy
|
I have dcanet - 6 statics - $44/month. Been great. Speakeasy has usually
been high compared with others. Check out cavalier - www.cavtel.com - they
are $25/month and I think static or at least they don't block anything.
If you are doing your own web and mail then why not DNS? I do it all here.
All I need is the pipe. The only thing DCA does for me is reverse DNS. It
is nice to not have to depend on anyone else and you can change add
domains at will. I have 13 domains here but they all answer to the one
static IP. Virtual HTTP works great. Personally while I know it can work,
I would be scared to depend on dyndns. I like knowing everything is locked
down and under my control.
