[PLUG] dyndns


i am cheap- i am broke.

(of course, my daughter has graduated from college, and we OWE NO MONEY TO ANYONE!)

 

i will upgrade to a “higher speed” connection.

since i do not like the greed and business practices of comcast, that will probably mean verizon dsl.

 

it is my understanding that this is a dhcp lease arrangement.

what is the term of this lease.

if the connection is always on, when does the address change.

 

as an intellectual exercise, and perhaps a convenience to my students,

i want to setup a linux/apache web server, etc. at home.

 

can i do this with dynamic dns, a service advertised as free for up to 5 hosts.

anyone have experience with dyndns.org? any thoughts?

 

thanks in advance
