hi ppl

heres my prob almost 2 years ago i bought a domain name (spacefree.co.uk) i went through all the process of setting up abyss at that time and eventually got it to run correctly then my pc was stolen so i lost everything i decided i would have another go at it recently so here i am again how do i get spacefree.co.uk to point to my pc so ppl can get to my website ive tried to type in my ip address but at the mo im using a dial up account so my ip would probably change every time i log on. do i need to use zone edit or something like this to get my ip to point to spacefree your help would be much appreciated

using a dial up account for a webserver isnt a very good idea in the first place. it will be VERY slow to load up. im a big noob when it comes to networking, but couldnt yu get a www.no-ip.com or www.dyndns.com account and get your domain to forward to that? your dialup bill will probably cost you the same amount as proper hosting by the way :p

If you want www.no-ip.com to do it, you'll have to sign up for no-ip plus. $25/yr
www.dyndns.com is no longer accepting new accounts, but you can try:
http://www.dyndns.org/services/

You should try contacting spacefree to see if they have a solution.
NameCheap.com, where I got my domain, has free Dynamic DNS services.
