I use directvinternet (used to be telocity). My account includes a static IP, so it's not really an issue. I use dnsalias as my domain (www.dnsalias.com) - they have the ability to change similarly to changeip, dyndns, and others.
My ADSL is ~800k down & ~200k up - so, while it's faster than the ~32k up from a modem, it's still takes a while to get big things off the site. http://tomii.dnsalias.com -----Original Message----- From: Tom Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 9:17 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: host email/web on ADSL gary wrote: > Dear all, > > Any idea on how to host email/web on ADSL(dynamic ip) on RH??? > Is there a way to do it? or it is impossible??? > You could use a hosting service such as dynip.com. I don't know all the details about them but they do things like map domain names to dynamic IP's for you. Although I have had ADSL for a year now and never had the address change. The other thing I'm not sure about is, at least with my ADSL, they use a non-routable IP so I am not sure how dynip handles that type of thing. Also if you are going to host a web server, you have to remember the key word(letter) in ADSL is Asyncronous. WHile you download speed is nice and quick, your upload speed is the same as a dial-up modem. So you pages will load slow to others going to you site.
