Actually, it looks like I'd have to get a business account,
which costs about $100/month + ~$24 for my phone line.
If I could figure out where the address is getting
re-written (has to be either something in Apache's config
or something funky with my bind. (I'm no bind expert, though.))
then this thing might work.
I was doing some testing and dialed in from another computer
and different ISP and tried to access http://xx.xx.xx.xx
and it didn't get re-written. When I added "/~dbk",
it did get rewritten as mylocalhostname.com/~dbk.
Then I noticed that the same thing was happening with
netscape on the box running the Apache server in question,
and with lynx, too.
Well, thanks again for your interest and effort.
