I guess if you have DHCP then you shouldn't trust that you will get the same IP forever even if you get the same one over an extended period of time. I do not have a fixed IP for sure and get a new one everytime my ISP connection is reestablished. To host a webserver, I use no-ip client (available in Debian). To use it, I need to register on http://www.no-ip.com with my current IP address and an email and a desired hostname (e.g. mywebsite.no-ip.org). Then I need to installed their client with is available from Debian repos. And that is it. The no-ip client periodically notifies the no-ip.com website what my current IP is and I give out the url mywebsite.no-ip.org to others to visit my webpages. ->HS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
