Actually...Mario's exactly on the mark.
I use dyns.cx (or ma.cx)...They offer service that will link your domain to
your IP... For instance
I have oldeindustries.com
My IP is dynamic...but I have a program that updates their site with my
address whenever it changes.
For instance, 4.60.77.160.
All traffic to oldeindustries.com goes to 4.60.77.160...all ports. So I can
have a webserver or mail, or whatever. It works.
Don't try it, cause that computer is off :)
