2) The machine I administer remotely in another country is connected to an ISP that provides a dynamic IP, which has caused me headaches trying to find a method of automatically obtaining the new address each time it changes. If I change over to an ipv6 connection, will they still issue a dynamic address? (I don't know if the dynamic IP is a means to conserving limited ipv4 addresses or if it serves other purposes).
write a script for the remote box to email you when ip addr changes with new ip addr. I did this but didn't need to email the new ip addr as it was in the email header. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
