Using Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to create an alias dynamic IP
address to a static host name in any of the many domains DynDNS.org
offers, allowing your network computers to be more easily accessed
from various locations on the Internet. DynDNS.org provides this
service, for up to five host names, free to the Internet community.
The Dynamic DNS
SM
service is ideal for a home website, file server, or
to make it easy to access your home PC and stored files while you’re
at work. Using the service can ensure that your host name always
points to your IP address, no matter how often your ISP changes it.
When your IP address changes, your friends and associates can always
locate you by visiting yourname.dyndns.org instead.
To register free for your Dynamic DNS host name, please visit
http://www.dyndns.org.
