Thanks Suresh.
For the statis IP, they are thinking :) For the time being they are giving
it to only those opting for the complete dedicated 64K line. For the
shared one, they say, they will give a dynamic IP (obviously) but what I
could not understand (also didn't know what more to ask) was : If my
machine will remain always ON, the dynamic IP will become permanent for
this duration. In this case, they say, they will be changing the dunamic
IPs every 7 days. Can you tell me what this means ? Is it possible for
them to give this dynamic IP as the permanent for the duration of machine
remaining ON, whatever this duration might be ?
