http://www.dyndns.org I've used them for about 4 years, they're great. I think it's $20 a year to use your own domain, so that doesn't qualify under your free requirement, but $2…

Go to http://www.whatismyip.com and find your EXTERNAL IP address. Now when you're remote SSH to this IP. That IP is the one which your router has been assigned by your ISP.

Go into the DL setup program to the Status page and make a note of the IP addresses for your ISP's primary and secondary domain name servers (DNS). Enter these numbers on separate …

John, You are a god. That did the trick. Thank you! You know, I asked Comcast for the DNS numbers, because I thought that would do the trick, and the phone representative refus…

They should remain the same indefinitely

I have a similar problem with my ibook. Any time I try to use it at school, where the wifi network is not broadcast, I have to completely reconfigure the airport to connect to it.…

You can create a new location profile by going to System Preferences/Network. Click the Location button and select New Location. After creating a new profile you need only select…

And this belongs in Networking so there it goes!

Yes I keep having the same problem, first on my 17" G4 and now on a MacBook Pro. I fixed it once on the 17" by completely deleting all network preferences. And it worked fine for a…

Unfortunately, there's no easy way to do that. You can easily change the port. Unfortunately, everyone sending mail to you won't know where you've moved to. And outbound will sti…

Thanks for the response. Back when I was on ISDN I ran an email server off my Debian box. Guess that's because it was ISDN- who'd run a spamming business off of that? This articl…

Well that's kind of what I was talking about. You can move off of port 25, but you have to have a relay or some other gateway upstream that does the port 25 to port relay for you.…

I'm using just the static (more or less) IP from my ADSL line. I'm using No-IP to reverse DNS(?) whatever.whatever.net to my IP at home. With ISDN it worked great; just a few chang…

Anyone with a server on the Internet can relay email for you. Maybe you can set up a trade with someone. Could be worth a post on the postfix or sendmail mailing list- you'll probl…

Gavin thanks for the links, I'll check 'em out

Yahoo BB is now blocking outgoing traffic on port 25? Man, how times are changing... guess with the 100mbit optical lines (they do optical now, I assume), they've probably had to c…

Have you tried contacting your ISP and asking them to stop blocking that port? How about using port 587? They don't block that port, generally. I emailed my ISP so I could use m…

I doubt Yahoo BB would unblock port 25. They have like 50 zillion customers in Japan now, and somehow I doubt they'd do that just for me. Using port 587 though ... hmmm .....

Sorry to rehash an old thread. I now have a domain with mail servers and all that. Am I correct in thinking that I can just use those now?

Can you reset the airport express? I've worked lots with the other base stations but not the expresses.

My Airport Express does the EXACT same thing as well. No idea what's causing it, but the computer won't see the express again until I restart it. . .
