Using ddns (dynamic dns)
The DDNS service allows you to alias a 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� TZO�com is another alternative
to DynDNS�org� DDNS 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
