I currently have DNS/AD loaded one machine, and it's the only server on the network. Problem is my IP changes every few weeks (dynamic), so I'm going to move to dyndns.org. How would this work with AD? Anyone have any tips on making this move as smooth as possible? Thanks! Darrell Mozingo

Dyndns.org and AD

I have this same setup at home. I suggest putting a firewall/NAT router between the AD server and the internet. This way your internal address scheme never changes while your external DNS record is updated with the external address of the router. I take it you only have one exteranl IP from your ISP so use something like the SMC Barricade line of soho routers that let you create virtual servers to pass external traffic from the internet back to different ip's on the internal LAN. This way I have VPN, Web, and FTP hosted on three different boxes but using only one dynamic IP from my ISP.
