Re: Vault Server

Keehun (keehun on CD) runs a server in his basement for a handful of things. It isn't that hard to do, as long as you have access to the router where it is running you just have to open up the ports in the routers firewall for Vault.

His serves to a subdomain of his regular website, so he set up the domain registration to send visits to that subdomain to the ip of his server. If his ip changes he just has to change it online but there are ways with programs like dyndns to have it automatically update and some routers can automatically update them as well.

DynDNS you can also get free subdomains like 1242.dnsalias.com or something along those lines and it will autoupdate if your servers ip ever changes if you install a little app on your server.
