Since my cable modem is DHCP, I have a DynDNS.org DNS entry that allows for wildcard entries... so zibby.isa-geek.net is my host, but hyperdrive.zibby.isa-geek.net longshot.zibby.isa-geek.net integral.zibby.isa-geek.net lsdfajdsaiodf.zibby.isa-geek.net etc. all work. So when I SSH in, I make sure I specify the host name of the machine, and SSH doesn't whine. I'm sure there are other ways of doing this, but it works for me so why change it? :) Andrew S.
