Now, I am not an expert but I just don't see how this would work.
192.168.x.x addresses are for private networks. Therefore, I can have a
192.168.0.2 address, as well as any other person that has a 192.168.x.x
networks.
In this case, how would DynDNS know which one of the thouzand
192.168.0.2 addresses it should route to?
As far as I know, as designed the 192.168.x.x (and such) addresses are
not to be publicly routable...
But I could be wrong!! :)
