Well, thank you for linking it, and I've installed it and everything, but to tell you the truth I have no idea what it does

I have a dynamic IP, and where do I go from there? Only thing I can find is host a webaddress, which is not exactly what I want. I'm sorry for being such a newb, but a step-by-step guide (do not have to be very elaborate, i.e. with pictures and everything), would be a gift from heaven for me.
Or, I've found in create host that you can make that, and change in Boot5server my ip address to that host, if that's the right procedure. I don't know if it's that, but it doesn't work. Could still use some help though.
This is what I've tried so far:
host somethingorother.no-ip.info, to my current dynamic ip. Go into boot5zones:

This doesn't work, I don't know if it is because they haven't updated the host yet, or if there is something else wrong. One thing that's always confused me is what to write at localhost. just "localhost", 127.0.0.1 and the ip address I've heard, but nothing of that works anyways.
