Right now I don't understand what you've shared, but I'll keep it as 
reference for next week :)

Even though I technically have a dynamic IP, that should not prohibit me 
from testing stuff - ie. people outside getting to my server - as long as I 
know the correct way for them to get to it? right? For example, my husband 
wants to access newsgroups from work which are limited through his 
connection. If I set something up for news services, he could reach my server?
