Hey:

I can't think of how to make this work, but it seems like something that should be doable..

I currently own my own domain, and have been using dyndns.com's "custom DNS" to allow me to redirect 'example.com' to my website at home, which is on a dynamic IP.

I've now switched over to a VPS solution which hosts my website and allows me root access to a box (me likey), which will now host "example.com" on a static IP.

My question is, is it possible for me to somehow make "home.example.com" route to my box at home? Is there any software available that could automate updates to the DNS for this?

Ideally I'd like not to pay a service if possible, but if that's the only way then I suppose I'll have to go that way.

Thanks!
