[TriLUG] Looking for best deal on domain name server plus dynamic dns

[Joseph Tate]

I'd recommend zoneedit.com for DNS.  Free for the first 5 domains. 
Works well with the ddclient package for doing dyndns updates.

I am thinking of moving my domain away from GoDaddy.com.  The price
difference isn't necessarily worth the political dribble that I get
occasionally from the CEO, or the mindless and gimmicky advertising. 
123cheapdomains.com on the other hand has been very professional, and
has instantly resolved any issues that I have had.  And it only costs
a few extra dollars a year.
