Register with dyndns.org . Note your username, password, and hostname.
Install ddclient. Edit /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf so it contains something
like so:
# start ddclient.conf
daemon=600 # check every 10 min
syslog=yes # log update msgs to syslog
mail=SOMEBODY at EXAMPLE.ORG # mail all msgs to somebody
mail-failure=root # mail failed update msgs to root
pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid
use=if, if=eth0 # via external NIC
login=DYDNS_LOGIN
password=DYNDNS_PASSWORD
server=members.dyndns.org, \
protocol=dyndns2 \
DYNDNS_HOSTNAME
# end ddclient.conf
/etc/init.d/ddclient start , then "chkconfig ddclient on" or whatever. This
should work to get you started. There are *a lot* of options to ddclient.
Some of them might be useful somewhere; that's what you'll have to figure out
on your own....
