[linux-help] Re: DSL IP assignments

[Nathan <ncozzens@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've moved to Colo. Spgs. recently, so I can't use 
intcon.net.  Qwest only recently started offering DSL 
in my area.

So you're telling me that you provide your own ftp, 
ssh, mail, http, etc?  Your cron job allows you 
to  have a dynamic ip address and still provide these 
services for yourself when you're away from home?  If 
so, cool.  I check out the site as soon as I get a 
chance, but is there any fee, or are they simply 
giving you info on how to do something for yourself.
