Re: Getting a Dinamic Remote IP

[Romulo Sousa <romulosousa@gmail.com>]

Hello again,

Thanks for gimme a way to start everybody. I visited https://www.dyndns.org/ 
and created my account there. My doubt now is that how my ip will be
updated on dyndns's "database" all the time its changes?
For instance: if I have the following domain:

mydomain.dyndns.org -> 200.x.y.z

-> means "pointing to the public ip"

after the renew from my ISP's dhcp server:

mydomain.dyndns.org -> 200.a.b.c

how my.domain.dyndns.org is gonna "chase" the new ip provided by my
ISP in order to get the new ip from there?

Please, if I was not clear on my doubt, let me know.

By the way, I loved the joke and now I wanna make a little SOHO's
proxy. I'm studying how it works but I haven't found if I'm able to
authenticate user's from my /home/* only to use it as proxy through
mydomain.dyndns.org. In order words, I give my girlfriend
mydomain.dyndns.org as well as the port and she, and only she, can
access the proxy server after an authentication from his job for
instance. Is it possible??
Ok, I went to far. Step by step....but I would be glad if I have some
clues to start kidding around this subject.

Thank you all,

Romulo Sousa
