Hi ,
Sorry I'm a newbie , what if I my router doesent have a public IP
itself. I mean to say my provider provides me a 192.168.1.x of it's
network and internally I have a lan. will I ever be able to access me
personal system via router [provided my ISP provider will not change any
of it's settings from his end ] .
wondering if any kind of dynaDSN or peer to peer can help me to do
that .
Any Suggestions ?
Regards,
Ahmed Hussain

If you keep your computer on most likely your ISP assign dhcp IP won't
change.
Goto
and you can get your IP address if it is changed.
There is such a thing as a Proxy Sever that will solve this problem.
I connect to a server 800 miles away using NX server at
,
Installed on FC6 or 5 right out of the box.
The person , 800 miles away gets the IP address from
and
emails it to me and
I pull maintenance every week.
Crude way of doing things , but it works.
