Non Static ISP with Home Server

[jjohnston7]

I have a home server, I would like to make certin files accessable remotely via the internet. My ISP will not assign me a static IP address. Is there any way I can access my server remotely if my IP changes all the time?

Something like this might work - it emails you your IP every time it changes. http://ipmailer.wappu.tv/

try a servace called dyndns.com you simply setup a client on your server and each time your ip changes it updates on dyndns. you can then use a url such as myhost.homelinux.com or any other of the many domans available. the service is also free.

That sounds like it would work great!

dyndns works fine. just don't ping it.
