Hi all,

I am a beginner in this and do not understand this all.
and my question is very basic.

My setup is like this
I have 2 servers with static ip's 203.115.29.130 and .139
They run my dns and I want to setup 130 to run a dynamic dns.

I also have a small network using local ip's 172.16.1.x 
which is connected to the Internet via an adsl line.
This network is in a different location than my dns .130

Why does one use DHCP on the client side and not just named ?

All my ip's on my network are local ip's in the range 172.16.1.x 
and 10.0.0.4 which connect via a router to the adsl line

My ISP has given me the adsl line 
and on that the ip-number change from time to time.
I do not have any control over this IP number,
and it is that which has to be updated to my dynamic dns
