I don't think it could work as well as what I was thinking of.
The problem is that searching for an SHA1 will only work if the server you HAD is in range. In my setup you can allways use my DNS name even if my IP has changed, but there is no garenty I will still be running gtkg. Also advertising domainname vs IP has the side effect that if my IP changes you will still be able to get a network connection if you can. Is there an alternitave to DynamicDNS for serveces like gtkg, it would seame better on bandwidth if it where octets vs strings. > > > > > __________________________________ > > > > -- > > Regards > > /Fredrik __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
