 DAC> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^It 
 DAC> does not update all the

 DAC> say  mike.dyndns.com . 
 DAC> that static domain name is pointed to your

 MR> But what about the name makes other DNS machines

   "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.
