DynDns.org TZO No-IP
Do you have comments on any of those?
I have used no-ip for years. They offered a lifetime dns for us$9 some years after I first started which would not have advertisements, and constant heckling to upgrade. I jumped on. Then another couple of years they told me my service needed to be upgraded to subscription, that the plan I had was being discontinued. I replied with a copy of my $9 "lifetime" service and told them they had a contract with me they needed to honor.
After some more banter back and forth, they agreed to provide me another 30 years service at no additional cost. I accepted thinking that things may change drastically in that time-frame (another 20+ years) and being already in my late 60's (at that time), I may not have much need then.
Yes, I remember reading about this some time ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No-IP +++............... No-IP's core product is dynamic DNS services ("DDNS"). The basic dynamic DNS services using a domain owned by No-IP are free to use as long as the account remains active. An upgraded service to use your own domain name will cost about $25 for the year. Dynamic IP addresses are common on residential cable or DSL broadband accounts. The free service allows users to setup between one and three hostnames on a domain name provided by No-IP. The host name will then resolve to the current IP address of that user's computer. A software client is also provided by No-IP for Windows, OS X, and Linux that can be run on the computer that has the dynamic address. No-IP also provides other DNS, e-mail, and Network Monitoring services. ...............++- That free service would be fine for my needs :-) - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
