 Hello there!

 Ga> I've been testing no-ip and it looks pretty good. The only problem I've
 Ga> ran into is that, for instance, I made a test domain called
 Ga> galaxynet.serveblog.net

 Ga> If you type http://galaxynet.serveblog.net there is no problem with
 Ga> resolution.
 Ga>  But if you type www.galaxynet.serveblog.net or
 Ga> http://www.galaxynet.serveblog.net it will not take you to my site.  I
 Ga> wonder if they need to make an additional entry in their dns list or
 Ga> something or is this just how you have to reference the site without
 Ga> the www.  Have you had this problem?

 Actually that's not surprising.   Since you aren't registering a domain
simply hosting off a 
dynamic server.  Before it will show up on the World Wide Web you would have to
register
a domain  name for example   yourdomain.com , notify them of the dns address of
the 
server and then you would be able to use the www prefex. 

As an example I have a domain registered at  www.soundsoftsystems.com  which is
on the web
and I also run Synchronet BBS software which can be reached at
http:\\tcp.synchro.net  .

The only difference being the Soundsoft domain is registered and the bbs web
page is not.

Hopefully this little rant of mine made sense.
