[ale] Dynamic DNS FYI....

Somebody at the meeting was asking about dynamic DNS, and whether a 
particular provider (I guess it was the Bellsouth ADSL) included it as part 
of their service.  I seem to recall hearing some folks saying that there 
were places which would do it, but I didn't catch a specific provider.

FYI, there is a site, myip.org, which allows you to dynamically assign an 
address in the form yourname.myip.org.  As far as I can tell, it's totally 
free, and of course, is independent of your ISP.  I tried it just to see if 
it really worked and I was able to resolve the new name I set up immediately.

Hope this helps somebody ...

Eric
