For my home machine, I use dhs.org, my linux server runs a script on cron that checks my ip every 5 minutes, if it detects the ip's changed, it contacts dyn and modifies the ip address registered to my hostname. Ive had it set up this way for the past 8 months or so, and I can't think of a single time Ive not been able to hit my box (I hit it alot from work). My linux box dual boots into 2k server, and when I feel like leaving it up, I run my server off of it. Ive toyed around with port forwarding the requests over too my XP machine, but havent really felt the need to do that yet. Im hoping the linux version will make a come back so I can just use it on my server.
Cbreakers right though, Ive rarely seen my ip change..
