I get those 5 day warnings too, but when I log in, the login is a failure, 
but it reports success because its already been done.  dd-wrt has a DDNS 
page, and I have that set for a 20 day refresh, but when it does, its log 
is equally confusing.  I think thats is just DynDNS's way of heckeling you 
to buy the service.

The thing that bothers me about the tcptraceroute data someone sent, is 
that it ends at the modem since that is the modems address.  But the one 
report I was sent, said it was rejected at the modem, so I am wondering if 
Shentel has told the modem to block port 85.  One last thing I'll try in 
the next half hour is to reassign the port apache2 listens on, to 6309, the 
port range forward 6309 to this machine.

I'll give Jim a call later on this evening and compare notes as he uses dd-
wrt at home & a couple times at the tv station.

Ok, give it a shot at the link below now.

Cheers, Gene
