might it suggest DynDNS it allows you to dynamically update a hostname... ala soandso.rules.net so you can always connect to that hostname.. but the true ip behind it is updated via the DynDNS plugin whenever the router DHCP's. You might also want to upgrade the (assuming this is coming from your home cable or dsl connection) your account to have a static IP. ( I don't know if DynDNS can correctly determine the true outgoing ip address being used... because the machine connected to the router should be something like 192.168.1.101..but if the cable modem goes directly into the machine via ethernet port it should work fine

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
