"name" is any name of your choice, must stay the same.....
For example; anyone attempting a connect to name.dyndns.com causes a DNS
look-up directly on the their server(you become a sub-domain off of
dyndns.com) & then is resolved to your current Dynamic IP address &
connected to your system automaticaly.
