Many will not allow that - meaning, you will get reolution one way, but not reverse - meaning again, 123.123.123.123 = yourname.com = 123.123.123.123 Once you get past that - the rest is easy.. Im willing to bet tho - your provider will not allow you or will have to do that for you. -- Best regards, Chris Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. --------------enigF2EE73B22B6963E2B23E5C19 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFDbmEED5P/gMAbw2MRApt0AJ9DjoIklVHfbVZJvYL1QEyPZUEkbgCgsXfj 6TR4zlASyzjbVJ5q0N+i7Ek= =BGcD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigF2EE73B22B6963E2B23E5C19--
