They do... that's why I use No-Ip.info and run the auto-update script on my 
machine. Typically, have to wait no more than about 30 minutes before I can 
get back in when they change my IP. :-)

Hmm... maybe that's what the problem was. I didn't put in any keys. But I 
did put in my login name and password for my linux box. I also put in the 
custom port number I have SSH running on. Do I *have* to connect on port 
22? I had a TON of brute-force connection attempts before I changed to a 
non-standard port number.

Assuming it's the regular login password that I use on the local console at 
home?

No problem. I currently log in via SSH and start VNC Server manually.

Yeah... No problem here... although it would be nice to be able to connect 
to my wife's Windows machine too. :-)

Ok. I just reinstalled everything on both machines... NX is telling me "The 
NX service is not available or the NX access was disabled on host..." Any 
idea what's going on?
