Using dynamic dNs

The Dynamic DNS 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 .

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
