[wplug] reverse DNS

[John Harrold]

Sometime in April Duncan Hutty assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| Has anyone else run afoul of Comcast in this way?
| Is there a solution using a dynamic DNS service?

i have dsl service with verizon with a dynamic ip. i use dynamic dns's
service (dyndns.org) to get a hostname whos ip info is updated whenever my
ip changes. i send email (through cron) to myself at school without any
problems. the service is free, but if you give them $10 they give you some
perks like dropping the requirement that your dynamic ip change at least
once every 30 days.

 What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless,
 whether the mad destruction is brought under the name of totalitarianism or
 the holy name of liberty and democracy?
