Accually starvey... I have freinds who just try and keep their connection up as much as possible. I host their DNS on my home system (dedicated ISDN) and just change their IP about once a month. An easy way around this (if you dont have a freind with a namserver) is to find someone who offers Dynamic DNS. There are a couple free ones out there.. but are not really reliable, since, hey.. they are free. At Illuminati, we are offering 3 cable modem packages which gives you access to have DDNS. With a little CNAME, you own domain will point to the DDNS assigned to you. check out www.io.com/products. Time warner doesnt like UNIX servers... but Time Warner's filters are not active.. why WOULDNT you run a server? (sorry to throw a shameless plug into this, but I'm not aware of any other Austin/Houston providers offering this) Starvey wrote: > > Larry Wolff (ljw@austin.rr.com) wrote: > : I want to have a www.myname.com point to my roadrunner static IP? > > : How do I complete the interNIC forms, especially for DNS, etc > > Hey sparky...
