Q: Please bare w / me .
I have WinXP Pro. and we know him as remote desktop connection.
I make use of ADSL w / dynamic ip.
Everytime me from going on holiday I will write about my ip address, so I can access my desktop from elsewhere where.
However, sometimes the connection dropping and my computer with DSL connection, but IP changes.
Is there any way I could my own ip and able to Remote Desktop Connection to assign?
The problem is if I assign my ip to my ISP connection, my DSL connection does not work.
Best Answer: Yes, you need his IP address, but not necessarily static. Then type the IP address in your RD client "Computer;" field. Make sure you your firewall allows outbound connection and his allows inbound.

If you are away from home, open up a command prompt window on the computer where you are at.Why mess around with nslookup? Just put in your domain name for the remote desktop connection! I've been doing it that way for well over a year.
Well where were you last night???:P
I was just postulating that I THOUGHT that it could be done this way!!:)

Re:just one more question…usually I don't have anything important anyway…but how safe is this thing?It's safe enough, just make sure your machine is up to date with patches and stuff and choose a strong password.
I've never heard of anyone hacking a remote desktop connection. Doesn't mean it's never been done, but I suspect that if it had, there would have been a big deal made of it.

so now you have a domain name, timekeeper.dyndns.org, for example.
There is a list of clients that you can put on your home machine. Whenever your IP changes, this client will automatically tell dyndns your new IP.
Install the client and make sure it is running.
Now:
If you are away from home, open up a command prompt window on the computer where you are at.
type: nslookup timekeeper.dyndns.org
you will get your current IP at home, and you can connect!
thanks…………I got it.

Looks like this will do the trick. >> DynDnsClient (http://sfrooz.homedns.org/DynDnsClient/)<<. I made a DNS.bat file so I dont have to type the script out everytime I start it.
I'll let ya know how well it works soon as my IP changes while im at work.
DeeEnEs v2.3.22 is your best client IMO. Small. Will autorun when windows starts up if you want. -TAL

Re:How about using one of those dynamic dns service??? install the client on your computer, and everytime the ip address changes, the client will update your IP address, so that when you access your computer via its dns name it will be directed to your home computer. I think this should work.
Re:What I do for some friends is, sign them up for dyndns then point a CNAME from one of my domains to their dyndns hostname.
Re:which client app please? Im running Win2k Pro on my server.
Re:I didnt know there was a service like that out there. Thanks for the info for me too.
Re:yes, do what guy said. it will work fine.
Re:here is a thought: register with dyndns.org
Install the client app on your computer
do an nslookup from wherever you are at.
if the IP has changed, nslookup will show you new IP
Re:Well that sucks. You might try investigating a different ISP and see what they'd charge for a static IP. You cant really just assign your own IP because that IP might already be dynamically assigned to a different user. Is there a way that a friend, wife, girlfriend, roommate could check the IP for you while you're on the road.
Thats all I can think of.
Sorry for the lack of help.
Re:well………."mindspring" will charge extra $30 for that.
Re:Sorry about the last post. Accidentally hit Enter.
I'd talk to your ISP and see if you can get a static IP. Some ISP's will give you a static IP for a fee.
