dynamic dns services

[Ed Barnes]

Hi list.
As some of you may know last week-end I downed my Linux system for most of 
Saturday.
On Friday evening I went to www.dhs.org to update the host record for the 
Linux system anomaly.2y.net and ran into problems, I received the message 
that three updates in 15 minutes would get my account or something like 
that.
This is fine I understand the principal behind dhs having such a policy as 
it prevents abusive use of their limitted resources.
However, in my case I had almost never done any updating as I have an 
almost static dynamic ip address if you know what I mean.
So, after I brought my system back up I created myself an account with 
cjb.net's dynamic dns service and since I started using it a week ago I 
have been pleased.
I am wondering what the experiences of others have been who have used 
these services and I am wondering if there is a consensus among list 
members if one service is better than another for example.
I know that this message is not directly related to Speakup and or Linux 
so I'd encourage anyone who wishes to reply to write to me directly as 
opposed to cluttering up the list with this thread.
Thanks folks and hope everyone enjoys what remains of the week-end.
