Go to http://www.dyndns.org/ and sign up there.  They give you up to 5
hostnames for free, you just have to update the IP address every time you
redial.  That's who I get my 3 hostnames through, and I'm happy with them. :)
I recommend ipcheck.py (apt-get install ipcheck) to update the addy.
However, don't ask me how to *automate* the update script, because I'm still
trying to figure that out myself.

HTH.
