 @SUBJECT:Dynamic DNS Listing (monthly posting)                       N

It's that time again...

This is just the DDNS provider listing, stolen from the complete DDNS
document available at http://www.technopagan.org/dynamic/ . The other
parts just explain what Dynamic DNS is, but chances are you already know
that. :-)

As always, feel free to comment, correct, and generally yell at the
author, David E. Smith, in the echo or via Internet email to
dave@technopagan.org.


3. Who provides Dynamic DNS service?

   That's the real question, isn't it? A few local ISPs provide this
   service to their customers, but not many. So here's a list of outside
   providers, listed in alphabetical order.

   `yourhost.theirname.com' implies, of course, whatever name you want in
   the `yourhost' spot.

   `yourhost.com' implies you've purchased your own domain name (in the
   .com, .net, or .org zone). None of these prices include InterNIC fees
   - presently $70 for the first two years, then $35 a year after that.

   "Server unavailable" means that, the last time I updated this
   document, I couldn't find any information on that service, because
   their website was down. And believe me, I tried...

3.1 Darktech

   (link to http://www.darktech.org/dtdns)

   "Dynamic DNS" service: yourhost.darktech.org, free. Only available to
   BBS sysops.

3.2 detour.net

   (link to http://www.detour.net/)

   Service currently unavailable, though some form of dynamic DNS service
   should be "coming soon."

3.3 dhs.org

   (link to http://www.dhs.org/)

   Dynamic DNS is unavailable now, but is expected soon. Hostnames will
   likely be yourname.dyn.dhs.org, pricing unknown.

3.4 dyndns.com

   (link to http://www.dyndns.com/)

   "Dynamic DNS" service: yourhost.dyndns.com, $25/year.

   "Dynamic Domain" service: yourhost.com, $50/year, $25 setup, $5 per
   additional DNS record.

3.5 dyndns.org

   (link to http://www.dyndns.org/)

   "Dynamic DNS" service: yourhost.dyndns.org, free. (The service is
   still in beta testing, according to their website, and may be
   unreliable.)

   "Dynamic DNS" service: yourhost.com, price indeterminate. (I can't
   make any sense out of their pricing scheme, which seems to be geared
   to small businesses rather than individuals.)

3.6 dynip.com

   (link to http://www.dynip.com/)

   "DynIP Basic" service: yourhost.dynip.com, $35.95/year.

   "DynIP Pro" service: yourhost.com, $159.95/year.

   Contrary to popular belief, these prices are in US (not Canadian)
   dollars.

3.7 Just Linux

   (link to http://www.justlinux.com/)

   yourhost.penguinpowered.com: free

   The DNS update client is in Perl, so Windows users may not be able to
   use this service. (I haven't tried it though. I'm a Linux user myself.)

3.8 Monolith Internet

   (link to http://www.ml.org/)

   ml.org is out of business. I list them here because they were (as far
   as I know) the first group to provide dynamic DNS service, and I was
   proud to work for them.

3.9 Nikhilino Online Services

   (link to http://www.nols.com/)

   "Dynamic DNS" provides yourhost.nols.com or yourhost.com, $20/year,
   additional DNS records free.

   The author of this document recommends them highly. :-)

   (No, I don't get a referral fee or anything like that. I'm just a
   satisfied customer.)

3.10 TZO Internet

   (link to http://www.tzo.com/)

   "TZO Standard" service: pick any one of yourname.tzo.com,
   yourname.tzo.net, yourname.tzo.org, or yourname.tzo.cc. $24.95/year,
   or $39.95 for 2 years.

   "TZO Premiere" service: yourname.com, $59.95/year, $99.95 for 2 years

3.11 Webworks IP Registry

   (link to http://www.ddns.org/)

   "Dynamic DNS" service: yourname.ddns.org, free.

   "Extended DDNS" service: yourname.com, $20 per year.

   Their name servers are located in Singapore and are, by all accounts,
   heavily overloaded. DNS queries can take up to two minutes to resolve;
   some users may find this unacceptable.
