For DynDNS setup:
Step 1. Set up your DynDNS.com account.
Register for a free account at DynDNS. Agree to the site's terms, and use a legitimate email address to complete registration. Once in awhile, DynDNS will email you at that address asking you to confirm that it continue your service.
Log into your new account. Go to the "My Services" area on the left side. Under "Host Level Services" click "Add Host Services." There, click "Add Dynamic DNS Host." DynDNS will autofill your IP address (if you're doing this from your home computer). Choose a domain and type in a custom subdomain, which can be anything from lifehacker.kicks-ass.org or john.is-a-geek.com or gtrapani.dyndns.org.
Step 2. Set up your HFS to update DynDNS.
Menu > Dynamic DNS updater > DynDNS wizard...
- Fill the fields with your DynDNS account settings
- Save the options of HFS.
Now that your HFS is "registered" with DynDNS, each time your computer's IP address changes, it has to let DynDNS know. This can be also done either with free updater client software or through your router.
Other solutions (In place of step 2)
Solution 2
If you are behind a router, you're in luck. Most modern routers support dynamic DNS services. Here's a screenshot from my router's interface (yours will look different) with DynDNS settings.
Solution 3
If your computer is connected directly to the Internet, download the DynDNS updater client for Windows: http://www.dyndns.com/support/clients/ Install it and enter your DynDNS information so that your computer can update DynDNS's database regularly.
Step 3. You're done. Give your new domain a spin!
Type your new domain name by entering it in your web browser's address bar. It should resolve to your home server.
welcome mowogo
i'm sorry for your problem, but as the "self test", lots of people here, and myself report, your HFS is working perfectly all over the internet.
i'm downloading your mp3 right now.
the problem seems to be related only to those around you. funny.
as maverick noted, that message you got doesn't seem to be the standard message, so i guess that if you find who's giving you that message, you will find the offender.
anyway, if you already tried to type the full form
http://97.80.169.177/
then my suggestion to work around your problem is to not use your numerical address, but a name (domain).
you can get one for free at no-ip.com and dyndns.com
you just have to register there.

An solution:
In Windows
Click START. Go to RUN. Type in Command. Then OK. When command box appears type after existing text: ipconfig /flushdns (exactly as here). Click ENTER.
Now restart your PC, and reset your router if you have one.
Your dns cache has a corrupt entry for the site you are trying to reach. If you want to see the difference go ipconfig /displaydns before and after flushdns.
Well, I think I may have some information for you. In one of your first posts in this thread you mentioned you have been getting "Oops - Broken Link" error messages. I have never heard of such an error message so I decided to google it. Many, many people have been reporting the same problem as you. This isn't a HFS problem at all just so you know that.
You are going to have to do some reading and hopefully you will find a solution.

Good luck.
Well, i think the problem is in your HFS. Tell a friend to download and install HFS. Then you try to connect to his server from a system without HFS installed. If you are able to connect, then something in your HFS is wrong. So you can try to reinstall HFS by zero, resetting all preferences and file system. Eventually you may also consider to change your ISP
1.QuoteWhen trying to connect to your HFS File Server, you must be running HFS.exe (HFS File Server) on the external machine that you are using to connect to your own HFS File Server.
I kept trying to Log In to my HFS File Server from a friends PC(s) and kept having errors like "page not found" and/or "Oops - Broken Link" and/or many other error messages. Even though it would be nice to access the HFS File server without having to run HFS.exe on an external PC (but this is not possible). HFS.exe (HFS File Server) must be running on both machines that you are using.
You seem to be doing something wrong: HFS is a web-server (limited in some sense, but working perfectly as a fileserver!). To connect to your server at home from any place, you can access it with a web-browser in the same way as any other website, without the need to have installed hfs.exe on the client side. I downloaded from your site from a machine that is not running hfs. It think you are simply not writing the address of your home on your firends pc.

As SilentPliz says, hfs is portable, provided you save options to a file, and provided, on the othe pc you place your hfs and data to the same driveletter! Having all on a usbdrive K: on your system, in another system you must ensure that the driveletter assignd is also K: . That's all.
You can show us an example of a link that you have tried?

HFS is portable!
Simply save the options in a file.
