[ale] Grrr, IP changed

[jdp at algoloma.com (JD)]

My Registrar has ZERO to do with my IPs, but I suppose many people buy an
all-in-one package because it is easier.

Registrar --> DNS Server of record for the Domain ---> IPs for the domain

It is the DNS service where you need to make the changes.  If you don't have a
static IP, seems like it would be best to have a process automatically modify
your DNS IP. Many DNS services have programs do to that - no-ip and dyndns do.
Some are even supported by router firmware, so there isn't much for humans to
do, though I think DynDNS makes people login monthly to keep a free account now.
