    I have a chat program and the only problem is with the client forms that i make i have to connect them to my computer,where the server is..but since i have a dial-up modem everytime i come online my ip changes...so how would i go about having a server on my computer that everytime i come online my computer's ip would be put on the server for me..or i would do it myself through a text box? i guess??
    or any opinions of what would be a good way to go about this?

    Thank you.

    one way could be to get the client to download a text file from your website containing the ip address, and maybe you could make the server some how change the text file by on the website by using an asp page that gets your ip address and opens up the text file and replaces its content? or perhaps make an ftp client built into your server to just create a text file and upload it to the website and replace the old one, don't know how viable it is though.
