but want to know if they are the same.im setting up my home server with a domain name ill purchase soon.but im not sure also if i have a fixed external ip address or not or if there is a way to set up my server for world access.so maybe purchasing some kinda DNS type manager that will allow me to use my own domain name and my own server.id rather do.and not sure if godaddy's premium DNS is the same as dyn.com standard DNS.
a) Is godaddy.com the same as dyn.com standard dns
nope. Dyn.com is more business/enterprise oriented, or websites that can't afford to have DNS outages. They have SLA if I remember correctly, There are others such as dnsmadeeasy, zoneedit, .etc .etc
b) Use dns.he.net - they have dynamic DNS support
also, +1 to the previous poster's reccomendation to check their ISP's TOS. Some actually block port 80, unless you have a business-class connection with them
Don't waste your energy trying to change opinions ... Do your thing, and don't care if they like it.
