Free Dynamic IP Registration?

[evilboy]

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find reliable, free, dynamic IP registering. I'm attempting for the first time to set up a server. I know I need dynamic IP registering and I'm finding it really tough to find one.
Any suggestions would greatly help!

Thanks!

I'm using dyndns.org. It's free and I have never have any problems with it.

If you like it, you should donate a few bucks. It isn't free to them, you know.

Can this be used behind a firewall?

I KNOW I sound really newbish, but I'm going to ask anyway. I just registered, how exactly do I access the site, do I have to run some kind of web server software, upload to an FTP, or what? THX! 🙂

When you finish register you need to login with password that they sent you. go in and register for a hostname something like impact55.dyndns.org for example. Now download a client something like YiPost and just run it on your comp. When it detects IP changes then it'll update the DNS server automatically.
