Who provides a good dynamic dns software client that is open source or
cheap?

 

Thanks

Most DSL routers will let you do port forwarding. You just need to figure
out which port your remote control software uses and forward that via the
router to a specific PC.

 

I use PCDuo which allows me to specify which port I'd like to use on the
client. So I set up the same IP externally, and then set up port forwarding
inside to look something like this;

 

5110 --- 192.168.0.10

5111 --- 192.168.0.11

5112 --- 192.168.0.12 and so on.

 

On my remote software I tell it to connect to the public IP of the router
and then append the correct port number.

        OK, wayyy off topic. 

        I need to be able to remote contorol a couple

        of PC's thru the Internet. These PC's are connected

        via DSL and are behine a NetGear DSL router which is

        also acting as the DHCP server. In fact, the PC that

        I will be contorlling them with is likewise set up.

 

        I have the IP address that the ISP assigned, which is now

        assigned to the DSL router. And obviously the IP addresses

        on the inside for the PC's are public addresses (192.168.0.x)

 

        Does anyone know of a product or method that will let me get

        to these PC's? It would be nice to do maintenance on them 

        from home instead of having to drive over there.
