[edlug] dynamic dns, domain names, and other shenanigans
I have a dynamic dns account - and I have just registered a domain name
(.co.uk).
I wish to marry them (or find a better way) - but what is the best
approach? The options seem to be ...
a: wait until the minimum 60 days expire, and move over to the custom
DNS service provided by the dynamic dns service provider (currently
dyndns.org) for $24 per annum, which would maintain the dns entry and
allow my ip to roam.
b: move my ISP to one that offers a static, and then register that -
(but with whom and how?)
c: just use the free forwarding supplied with the domain name
registrar.. but a bit crude.
a bit of a grey area for me.. has anyone found anything more elegant,
robust, or effective?
