I was using dns2go until they moved over to a paid plan.  Then i bit the
bullet and paid for a net.au domain. ($AU88 was the best rate I could
find without signing away my soul).

I'm currently using various port forwarding setups internally (mainly
via my winroute server).  The problem is the restrictions but in place
by the ISPs here ins the great land of down under.  They say that there
if you want to host a server, you have top pay their "business" (aka:
double pay) plans.  This means that none of my mates are able to host
the port for me.

If you do have a spare IP you could lend me, I'd be interested in
testing it to see what does / doesn't work.
