What is DynDNS??
![]() | View Full Version : DynDNS?? robkerry 01-03-2001, 11:53 AM What is DynDNS?? kunal 01-03-2001, 01:26 PM Dynamic DNS? Marty 01-03-2001, 02:34 PM Well a Dyne is a measure of force. The conversion factor is 100000 Dynes = 1 Newton or 444820 Dynes = 1 pound-force. So I would assume that DynDNS is the amount of force required to push you Domain Name through the Servers to you web site.:D Actually I think kunal's guess may be better. xporter 01-03-2001, 04:26 PM Marty you are good! robkerry 01-03-2001, 04:30 PM I thought 444810 Dynes = 1 pound-force!!! etLux 01-03-2001, 05:18 PM Stop that. I am the Official WHT Smart Ass. Félix C.Courtemanche 01-03-2001, 05:20 PM Originally posted by etLux Stop that. I am the Official WHT Smart Ass. Definately. etLux 01-03-2001, 05:23 PM Thank you, Felix. Dang upstarts... Marty 01-03-2001, 05:27 PM robkerry, Not according to "Elementary Principles of Chemical Processes 2nd Edition" by Richard M. Felder and Ronald W. Rouseau of the Department of Chemical Engineering, North Carolina State University. It is 444820 exactly. etlux, Actually, I was surprised that you had not jumped on this earlier, or maybe I am reading too many of your posts. etLux 01-03-2001, 05:30 PM For those few who care, a dyne is a centimeter-gram-second unit of force, equal to the force required to impart an acceleration of one centimeter per second per second to a mass of one gram. Either that, or it's something to do with very old animals. robkerry 01-03-2001, 05:34 PM That books made by Americans, wouldn't trust it!! Only joking! Knowing my luck, both of you are probably Americans! etLux 01-03-2001, 05:45 PM Actually, that was courtesy of the 1937-1938 "Handbook of Physics" -- Pierce, Smith; published in Great Britain, 1938 (autographed, incidentally, by physicist George F. Manley). CRego3D 01-03-2001, 06:55 PM Yep Marty 01-03-2001, 07:36 PM etlux, I knew I could not out do you.:) etLux 01-03-2001, 07:40 PM I can take no credit, Marty. You see, George did it... Spider John 01-03-2001, 08:24 PM Originally posted by etLux Stop that. I am the Official WHT Smart Ass. I beg to differ. I have been knighted by Queen Yippychick of Awfulbania as Sir Smart of Assalot. Therefore, my regal title belies my right to the subsidiary title of Official WHT Smart Ass. If thy wisheth, thy may be mine court jester! etLux 01-04-2001, 12:52 AM I sense a battle coming on over this, Spider John. Arm your goats, and prepare. kunal 01-04-2001, 07:36 AM Hmmm... Am I gonna have to call upon the CDS to decide who is who? eh? Whoever survives them is the winner. What say you, sirs? etLux 01-04-2001, 07:39 AM I will abide by the decision of the CDS. However, I am willing to make very big bribes to secure my proper title as Official WHT Smart Ass. For instance: 1.) I will stop calling Chicken, BC -- and vice versa. 2.) I will name a goat after each member of the CDS. kunal 01-04-2001, 08:53 AM Not enough, some more bribe may get you somewhere. etLux 01-04-2001, 09:05 AM I will also provide a virgin goat, for the CDS to do with what they will. kunal 01-04-2001, 09:11 AM Naa...they already have enough virgins lurking around.. anythign else? etLux 01-04-2001, 09:14 AM I will give, too, a pair of very large turkey bladders filled with fermented goat milk. kunal 01-04-2001, 09:27 AM You are going anywhere with this etLux, the bribes you have offered are nothing compared the the bribes offered by Spider John. etLux 01-04-2001, 09:32 AM I am not worried. Spider John has inferior goats. He is also not as good a Smart Ass. As we say here, remember, the furball always comes up. Chicken 01-04-2001, 10:41 AM Originally posted by etLux I will stop calling Chicken, BC -- and vice versa. I don't believe him. He says it now, but... kunal 01-04-2001, 11:55 AM Originally posted by Chicken Originally posted by etLux I will stop calling Chicken, BC -- and vice versa. I don't believe him. He says it now, but... Exaclty, I don't believe him either. etLux --> The deadline for the bribes ends in 1minute. etLux 01-04-2001, 02:44 PM BC, I am surprised at you for doubting my veracity. There is only one thing to do. Henceforth, I will simply refrain from providing my highly professional services as Smart Ass for free. Now you must pay for them. robkerry 01-04-2001, 04:44 PM How did you get to this slagging match from my existing question exactly???!!! etLux 01-04-2001, 04:50 PM It's all Kunal's fault. He is trying to extort me -- probably due to the new WHT Internet pay-toilet issue. kunal 01-04-2001, 05:00 PM Hey Hey Hey, watch it there etLux, your the one who offered bribe. etLux 01-04-2001, 05:05 PM Bribery is one thing... just good business practice. But this tendency toward extortion, uh, well, that could be construed as a character flaw. kunal 01-04-2001, 05:12 PM Well, extortion me? never! I am to nice to do any such thing EtLux. :( :( :D etLux 01-04-2001, 05:15 PM For more information, go to http://www.excite.com and, in the search box, type in exactly this (no spaces): dyndns There's quite a lot listed on it. Marty 01-04-2001, 05:18 PM Man, I am beginning to wish that I had never started this. Who knew that WHT had an official smart ass. But since I did, and being a good Kentucky mountain boy, I guess I could up the bribery a bit to two fat hogs and quart of the finest corn mash extract you can find. By the way, I believe etlux, I just don't think any goat or turkey bladder, no matter what it is filled with, can compare to Kentucky shine and a pig roast. robkerry 01-04-2001, 05:18 PM A search engine? What's a search engine? (sarcasm included free of charge!) etLux 01-04-2001, 05:22 PM Originally posted by robkerry A search engine? What's a search engine? Definition: SEARCH ENGINE An Internet artifice that purports to locate information which, however, is actually the product of a huge conspiracy amongst backbone providers to generate oodles of expensive traffic by inundating one with endless pages of useless links. And Marty, until you have had fermented goat milk, you know nothing whatever of the true glories of inebriation. kunal 01-04-2001, 05:29 PM Back to the topic, check out http://www.dyndns.org/ for more info on DynDNS :) |
