What a bunch of crap!

I utilize a service called ZoneEdit (http://www.zoneedit.com/) for my dynamic DNS entries. They let 
you set up 5 domains ("zones") with an infinite number of hostnames, email forwarding and whatnot 
for free. If you want more than 5 domains, you have to pay them a marginal amount of money. They 
have DNS servers spread out all over the country. 

Automatic DNS update is simple - I use http://www.whatismyip.com/ to determine my IP, and then I 
update the DNS entries by using a simple lynx command.

| I also use GoDaddy for my domain.
| Soon I'll be using DynDSN.org's Custom DNS solution ($30 for lifetime account).
| It seems like the best dynamic DNS service I have found. They also have a free
| product but your domain name has the _xxxx_.dyndns.org domain tacked on the
| end of it.
| The custom dns solution will allow me to manage my own dns account while automatically
| updating the dns records to reflect changes to my IP address (dynamic ip of course).
