The gist of your problem is that the registrar resolves your host during
registration. This means that dynamic names won't work.
What you need, then, is some service that would mirror your domain, and
would supply the front end you need.
You can try "soa.grantiecanyon.com", if they are still up, but my
experience with them is that they suck. Personally, I belong to a group
that share the cost of colocating a whole server, and our DNS are all
there. You are invited to join, BTW.
Alternatively, you can make an arrangment with your ISP to keep you IP
static. It may cost you a bit extra over the subscription, but I know of
at least one person to do that (he uses actcom).
And for anyone else who hasn't noticed, yes, I am back to reading
