What you COULD do is have mydnamic.ip.com delegate a subdomain to your IP number. Thus your hosts would be hostname.domain1.mydnamic.ip.com hostname.domain1.mydnamic.ip.com hostname.domain2.mydnamic.ip.com hostname.domain2.mydnamic.ip.com hostname.domain2.mydnamic.ip.com hostname.domain2.mydnamic.ip.com hostname.domain3.mydnamic.ip.com hostname.domain3.mydnamic.ip.com hostname.domain3.mydnamic.ip.com etc. But, before you do anything like this you really need to understand DNS. buy the DNS and BIND O'Reilly book and read that.
