Everyone may use free DNS service like dyndns.org. For example

D:\>nslookup sokhapkin.dyndns.org
Server:  barney.leapstone.com
Address:  10.10.30.21

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    sokhapkin.dyndns.org
Address:  216.220.64.102


D:\>nslookup 216.220.64.102
Server:  barney.leapstone.com
Address:  10.10.30.21

Name:    216-220-64-102.c3-0.hlb-ubr1.hlb-ubr.nj.cable.rcn.com
Address:  216.220.64.102

I don't care what is (current:-) IP address and DNS name assigned to me
by the provider, all services are configured to use sokhapkin.dyndns.org
domain name.
