Email ip address

**MobilePCPhysician** · February 21st, 2005, 11:17 PM

I have a client who has a dynamic ip address. I'm using VNC. Works great until the ip address changes. I heard of a program that monitors the ip address and when it changes, it sends an email to whoever you choose. I can't find anything. Anyone have any idea of the name?

Thanks

I personly don't like that kind of service. The one i suggested will not only keep track of the IP, but feed it to a live DNS name. All the person needs to do is remember the DNS name and he's connected. (heck, that software even works with a router). I used to use it myself until i got a static IP for my webservices.
