Use our Dynamic DNS service if you would like to host your own web server, mail server, ftp server etc. but you do not have a static ip.
Here is an example dynamic zone configuration.
Set the ttl's of your zone's A and PTR records low, like 60 seconds. We will allow settings as low as 5 seconds.
Setting the other types low will just slow things down.
