If I have my dsl isp register a domain name for me, would I be able to
change what ip address it mapped with my domain name? If every few weeks
or months, I get a new ip address from dhcp, I'd like to be able to resync
my ip with the domain name's. Am I right that I can't do with the dyndns
places unless I want my domain name to be something.linuxrocks.com?

Unfortunately, this is in SF and if I chose a different ISP I get no
discount onthe dsl and I don't get the free hardware and installation
(which they require). hmmm

Thanks,

Ben
