Setting up DDNS (no-ip) or other for BI

[nutshellml]

I read the web server info didn't quite understand what it meant that BI doesn't need to know the name of your ddns. I have No-Ip running on one of my computers now I want to use it for my BI computer, do I need to do anything special?

All it does is update the no IP service when your public IP changes, I don't even use DNS I just use my IP but then Comcast never changes

What do you mean by "....I have No-Ip running on one of my computers now" ? Do you mean that 'one of your computers' is running NO-IP's 'DUC' client program that updates your hostname when your IP changes?

No. Assuming you don't need it w bi as it doesn't accept names instead of Ip. I put it on another computer.

You said "I put it on another computer." What is "it?" No-IP's free DNS Update Client (DUC) ?

Blue iris mobile app does accept hostnames...You are not supposed to enter anything in the server.. No purpose for that...
