Hello,
I was wondering if anyone knows of any DynamicDNS providers (like dyndns.org) that also provides support for "rinetd" (port redirector)? My ISP blocks incoming requests on port 80. As I understand it, most (if not all) dynamic dns providers currently use "URL redirection" - i.e., modify the URL to add the non-standard port to the end. The client browser then connects to the web server on that particular port. I have a couple of concerns with this approach: 1) It doesn't look so nice having the non-standard port stuck on the end of the URL, and 2) Some corporate firewalls do not allow outbound traffic on ports other than 80 and 443 - thus, clients behind such a firewall would not be able to connect to my web site. If I understand it correctly, with "rinetd" the browser would connect to port 80 on the dynamic dns service provider's hardware; rinetd would transparently "proxy" the requests to my web server running on a non-standard port. Is my understanding above correct, and if so, any dynamic dns providers that support rinetd (or equivalent sort of port forwarding)? Thanks, Mike |
