As I mentioned, I am actually using dyndns on this machine.
I must admit though that I haven't succeeded in combining it
with a domain I have from EuroDNS,
though it is clear from the documentation that this is possible.

But as I have said, I prefer openvpn -
it makes me feel that the machine in Italy is really close to me!
Also I find it easier to use, eg with KMail/dovecot ,
though that is probably just a reflection of my knowledge/ignorance.
