Hi.

I am hoping to get broadband in my area soon and am still learning Linux
(RH9) - complete newcomer to the OS - and was intending on using it as a
router, but get the feeling from various posts that a hardware modem/router
solution is the better way to go.

In that case (well, either case actually!) I would like to be able to use a
service like www.no-ip.com or www.dyndns.org (or both together would be
good!) so I can host my own websites.

Clearly the update tools are going to be able to ready my ISPs assigned
DYNAMIC IP address somehow. I see some of them read it from specific
routers somehow.

Does anyone have an experience they could share with me - or point me the
right way to find out what hardware I would be best using (hardware router
or modem) and how to configure the basics of the RedHat machine to use that
modem or router - and talk to DynDns or No-Ip servers.

Many thanks

Richard

I'm not sure what will fit you best, but no-ip comes with an update program
that works well behind a hardware router. So i guess it will work good with
a linux router too!
