Hello,
    I don't know if you remember this or not, I tried to reply, but it came 
back as undeliverable.  I have tried this suggestion and some other variations 
on it, and I am still not able to figure it.  I even set up dhcp like the cable 
company would like, but whenever it was time to renew the information, it would 
stop working.  With dhcp I was having the hostname served by dyndns.org so my 
website was 180degreefitness.dyndns.org  which works.  I was then using 
www.granitecanyon.com to resolve 180degreefitness.com to 
180degreefitness.dyndns.org, but granite canyon gives you a SOB dns record and 
I need an A record with a 1 on the end so the ip address doesn't get cached, 
right?  As of now, when the ip changes, 180degreefitness.dyndns.org changes, 
but granitecanyon keeps pointing 180degreefitness.com to the old ip address.

Thanks for the help, Sorry if this is one big incomprehensible run-on sentence.
