Well, our school is running a server through AT&T Broadband, so there is no blocks preventing this. See http://heritage1.dyndns.org. We do have to run dyndns, which so far has been fine. We do run most or our web and e-mail traffic through another site though, so I don't know if there is a problem with SMTP through dydns (as I was told there was). Dyndns.org has some info on doing SMTP with dyndns, so feel free to research there. You might want to check Covad DSL. They seem to service areas where Qwest doesn't. Good luck and welcome to the club. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
