DDNS Wildcard
– Wildcard option (only for DynDNS.org)
Some DDNS servers support the wildcard feature which allows the hostname,
*.yourhost.dyndns.org, to be aliased to the same IP address as yourhost.dyndns.org.
This feature is useful when there are multiple servers inside and you want users to be
able to use things such as www.yourhost.dyndns.org and still reach your hostname.
