    no-ip is still around and still free, joined these days by dynu,   
   afraid.org, duckdns and clouddns all of which provide much the same service   
   as dyndns used to. If you have a domain registered then there's the   
   registrar and he.net.

    The only thing that goes in your box is the daemon that registers   
   changes of IP address, many of them publish the details so you can write   
   your own.

    Fair enough that's always a good reason.
