Sevatio,
Yes, this is possible. I use dyndns.org. Basically what you do is
setup a subdomain at one of the domain names they let you choose from,
and then install a client on your server. Whenever the DHCP connection
is refreshed, the new IP is sent to dyndns.org and the host record is
updated
okay, that still did nto fix it any ideas?

Thank you for your prompt reply and inspired suggestion of using 'mcc'. I did'nt know
that existed on the command line! Another reply suggested 'drakxconf' which seems to
be the same, although I am not sure that it is.
