»Maverick Posted February 14, 2007 Report Posted February 14, 2007 It's not possible to get for free unless you switch ISP to one who provides it for free.
»doc flabby Posted February 14, 2007 Report Posted February 14, 2007 Yes however i need to do some repair work to my server over the weekend first - was going to do it last weekend but i went out instead. During testing of a few things - i've screwed it up which has caused a few isses, none of the hosted zones are appearing in the directory for example. Just need a quiet few hours to sort it out. After i've completed that I will be be providing slots again.
»SD>Big Posted February 14, 2007 Report Posted February 14, 2007 just adding to mav's post:this doesn't work for ctm, but if you want a static ip to connect with let's say remote desktop, there's cool free app called Hamachi (www.hamachi.cc) that you would install on the pc you wnat to connect to, set up a 'group' and then install hamachi on any other pc, connect to the group (by entering its ip/name and password) and then you'll have a direct connection. hamachi runs in the background and isn't intrusive.
tcsoccerman Posted February 14, 2007 Author Report Posted February 14, 2007 Thank you for all the generous replies. In my timezone it was late when writing this topic, and soon thought to myself that was the reason we have hosts and great people like doc flabby. I still have to foward my port. i have realized what my router is but when it says what program i want to fowrard it too it does list continuum or subspace. what do i do now?
Nokia Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 My static IP costs 50 euros (once off). but i'm using verizon fios now. if i want a static IP on that its like $50 a month. but i won't be here long. 2mbit upload is nice
Drake7707 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 why is continuum incompatible with ****.no-ip.org
»Admiral Kirk Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 Because Ctm doesnt resolve host names, it uses direct IPs...
