IRC log for #brlcad on 20101224

00:02.36 ``Erik I used one of those a really long time ago... was some shell script that tracked ppp info for dialups... why not just record the IP somewhere?
00:02.57 starseeker it changes
00:03.20 starseeker plus I need to figure out port forwarding
00:03.42 ``Erik how often? O.o comcrap doesn't change mine unless the modem isn't connected for many hours
00:03.43 starseeker (kinda hard to do remote admin on a box if one can't reach the box...)
00:04.00 ``Erik come to think of it, I don't think it even changed me when I lost access for a week
00:04.16 starseeker ``Erik: dunno, haven't watched closely - either way, it's too long to want to type much
00:04.47 starseeker and if they do change it and I care, I'm not likely to be in a position to do anything about it...
00:07.11 starseeker I expect the more gnarly bit will be figuring out port forwarding - not a subject I know much about

15:57.04 starseeker Ooo - interesting: http://libcxx.llvm.org/
17:07.19 brlcad that is interesting, for a variety of reasons
17:08.45 brlcad starseeker: I've done dyndns before, not hard at all to set up -- but found setting up something manual was more reliable and easy to maintain
17:10.13 brlcad e.g., you could have your machine send a heartbeat update to some place that has a static IP (like brlcad.org/~starseeker/logmyip.php and write out the address to a file
17:10.28 brlcad then it's ssh+cat+ssh to get in
