Ok : the guy who is in charge of the software development already has
Linux on his machine, so I think it's ok.

What for ???
Is it *the provider* who "gives" static I.P. adresses ?

Is it necessary to have a "leased line" ( = an "already opened line") in

I.P. adress WITHOUT having a dedicated leased line...????

Are you sure it is Belgacow who is in charge of delivery of "names" ?

I thought it was Internic...

I'm just a guy with a project...

Because it's crossposted in alt.internet.access group, which is an
english-speaking group...

Anyhow, due to the "very good"  (  :-(((   )   Skynet newsfeed, it seems
