Well, I have enjoyed a static ip number on my cable modem for a year or so from @HOME. But, they are dead, so I seem be forced to get a dynamic ip number.
I don't have dhcpdc on my caldera 2.4 box, with a 2.2 kernel patched for win4lin. So, questions: 1. Which dhcpdc is best to use. I will likely use this same box as a dhcpd server for my home network, as well. 2. Does anyone know how long I will likely be keeping each assigned dynamic number? I maintain a domain name on register.com and can access my box and get mail with my domain name, provided I can associate my domain name with an ip number on register.com's server. I still would like to do that but it would be difficult if the ip number changed a lot. I never turn my machine off. The question is, if you don't turn off your machine, can they change the ip number?
