DynDNS.Org offers the redirector service, but it is not port forwarding. (The DNS standard does not make port forwarding mandatory so most web clients and DNS resolution clients do not support it.) The DNS and BIND book from O-Reilly has an article on it. :) -----Original Message----- From: plug-discuss-admin@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us [mailto:plug-discuss-admin@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us] On Behalf Of BoBB Sent: Friday, July 04, 2003 2:40 PM To: plug-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us Subject: DNS and port forwarding Okay I am not sure exactly how this works, but someone told me I need to find a DNS service that does port forwarding ... what I want is for www.mydomain.com to point directly to m.y.i.p:8000 since my ISP filters port 80 without having to put the :8000 after the domain, my registrar doesn't do this, the only option they have is for it to redirect, which is what im doing now, but not ideal, does anyone know of a service that does this? preferreably cheap! -- --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
