DDNS
The
Dynamic Domain Name System
allows you to update your current dynamic IP address
with one or many dynamic DNS services so that anyone can contact you (in NetMeeting, CU-
SeeMe, etc.). You can also access your FTP server or Web site on your own computer using
a DNS-like address (for instance myhost.dhs.org, where my host is a name of your choice)
that will never change instead of using an IP address that changes each time you reconnect.
Your friends or relatives will always be able to call you even if they don't know your IP
address. First of all, you need to have registered a dynamic DNS account with
www.dyndns.org. This is for people with a dynamic IP from their ISP or DHCP server that
would still like to have a DNS name. The Dynamic DNS service provider will give you a
password or key.
Dynamic DNS
– Choose the option for
Activated
or
Deactivated
DDNS.
Service Provider
– The default Dynamic DNS service provider is
www.dyndns.org
.
My Host Name
– Type the domain name assigned to your ADSL by your Dynamic DNS
provider.
E-mail Address
– Type your e-mail address.
Username
– Type your user name.
Password
– Type the password assigned to you.
Wildcard support
– Select Yes or No to turn on DYNDNS Wildcard. Enabling the wildcard
feature for your host causes *.yourhost.dyndns.org to be aliased to the same IP address as
yourhost.dyndns.org. This feature is useful if you want to be able to use, for example,
www.yourhost.dyndns.org and still reach your hostname.
