Interesting, and I think I have the same kind of luck.  (When I checked 
several years ago, the ipv4 address from my ISP was the same whenever I 
checked for a fairly long period.  I'm checking again, and hoping to find my 
notes of that address from those years ago.)

But, the main point of this reply is to ask you to provide a little more 
detail of how you set up everything so that you can host your web page that 
way.

I guess I'd have to set up Apache or some similar web server -- I guess I did 
that once upon a time, and should be able to do it again.

How did you get the information about your webserver (host name and IP 
address) into the DNS servers?  Did you have to pay someone to set that up and 
then pay a continuing fee to maintain those entries?

Thanks for any advice you can offer!
