you can get a dns name such as csland.hopto.org at www.noip.com or other places too...
also while your there u can get a program to run in the background that automatically updates your ip to match you url.....

Yeah but what would you do if you have a , your-name.com and your Static IP changes to a Dynamic IP like my IP did today , I need a client that can do My-domain.com , not no stupid sub domain updater thing. :evil:

I wasted $13.95 on a domain :(

not sure what you mean.
but for example my board http://smoke.hopto.org goes to my server
if my ip changes the no-ip duc program takes care of everything automatically detecting the change and updating the dns servers to direct to the new ip

If your talking about me , I want www.offspringvideos.com to be updated to my account from a program on my PC, Like No-ip Dynamic Updater.

Does anything like that exist or am I an idiot with a domain register that screwed me. I registered with 123cheapdomains.com , Please Help !

There are many dynamic DNS services that you can subscribe to for this purpose. You would have to pay a small fee to use the domain name you own and not one of theirs. How it works is you go to your registrar and point your domain name to the dynamic DNS service's DNS servers (for example, ns1.no-ip.com, ns2.no-ip.com etc..). Then, you run their software on your server which keeps their DNS server's PTR records updated and constantly pointing your domain name at your IP address. I hope this helps you.
