[aklug] Re: DynDNS no longer free

Hi.

I'd second the recommendation for no-ip; it's what I've been using for the
last 4 or so years. I don't remember the details, but I haven't liked
hassles around dyndns for a while. No-ip used to nag free users to update
their domains once a month or loose them; they appear to have changed that
to once every three months, which is an improvement.

I don't know about any other providers -I haven't had any real reason to
look.
