List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi Ed, I have used www.yi.org, www.dhs.org, and www.dyndns.org. I find that dhs and dyndns are the best. YI requires you to remember complicated protocal syntax to update your dns records, but dyndns and dhs have clients for windows and linux and all you have to do is visit there sites and log in to update. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ed Barnes" To: Sent: Saturday, June 01, 2002 11:57 PM Subject: dynamic dns services > Hi list. > As some of you may know last week-end I downed my Linux system for most of > Saturday. > On Friday evening I went to www.dhs.org to update the host record for the > Linux system anomaly.2y.net and ran into problems, I received the message > that three updates in 15 minutes would get my account or something like > that. > This is fine I understand the principal behind dhs having such a policy as > it prevents abusive use of their limitted resources. > However, in my case I had almost never done any updating as I have an > almost static dynamic ip address if you know what I mean. > So, after I brought my system back up I created myself an account with > cjb.net's dynamic dns service and since I started using it a week ago I > have been pleased. > I am wondering what the experiences of others have been who have used > these services and I am wondering if there is a consensus among list > members if one service is better than another for example. > I know that this message is not directly related to Speakup and or Linux > so I'd encourage anyone who wishes to reply to write to me directly as > opposed to cluttering up the list with this thread. > Thanks folks and hope everyone enjoys what remains of the week-end. > Ed Barnes > ebarnes@enigma2.cjb.net or ebarnes1@warp.nfld.net > > > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup@braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup > >
