RE: [OT] recomended DNS services?

Is this designed for dynamic IP's? I have fixed IP's and mainly want
to use it for my hosted web accounts (www and FTP etc). The reason for this
rather than using the host DNS service is I want full control of additional
A records to point subdomains etc to my home servers.

The big problem I guess is if my various hosts change IP's of any of their
boxes with little or no notice (as has already happened).

Is there any way to get the best of both worlds?

Paul.

Hiya Paul,
DynDNS.org works well for me - you can even setup clients to dynamically
update the records if you wish. (oh and you can use it with a 'real'
domain name if you wish (as opposed to myhouse.dyndns.org etc....))
