Yeah thats the way it's SUPPOST to work. ;) I'm a network
administrator, I handle about 600 + companies and their servers. It
never suprises me how often DNS is a problem, and how often something
was SUPPOST to work. Dunno if in this case that was your problem, but
it's always the first thing I look at when diagnosing a problem
similar to what was described. 9 times out of 10, the problem is
resolved by fixing something in DNS. Glad your up, i'll be checking
out your bbs.

Also how often does your IP change? around here you can usually get a
static IP from the DSL providers for $5-$10 more a month. And just get
a normal domain name registered. My cable modem (bbs.doteltech.com) is
not static, but it changes IP MAYBE once a year. I have it assigned to
a normal dns name.
