[GLLUG] Networking question

Alright, I've got an interesting scenario for you guys. Since I'm not
that good at networking fundamentals, I figured I'd ask people who
are.

I've got a domain name and a server at home running Arch Linux that I
want to be able to SSH into from {work,school,etc}. At home I have a
router that has support for dynamic DNS and I'm aware of No-IP and
DynDNS, but I'm trying to figure out how that's gonna fit into my
situation. The issue is, my ISP charges $15 for static IPs and I
really can't justify that right now, and I believe it was a monthly
fee. So, do you guys have any clever workarounds I could try? Lemme
know if anything needs clarification.

Regards,
Taylor
