I have a domain I purchased at godaddy.com and I was using free hosting
at 1and1.com, but I want to just put the site on my server at home.
Here's the dilemma. GoDaddy will do DNS if you use one of their hosting
plans or if you just want to park a domain, otherwise you have to
provide your own DNS. When I was trying to build a site at 1&1 I was
using their DNS, but I switched it back to just a parked domain at
godaddy until I figured out what I wanted to do.

Any recommendations as to where I can get free DNS to point
mydomain.com to my home IP? I already know how to setup the firewall to
redirect port 80 to the webserver. I previously used dyndns.org for a
free subdomain account, but they charge about 24.95/yr for basic DNS of
your own domain. That's a bit much for something I'm just screwing
around w/ at home. I also want to be able to direct the MX.

I really don't want to sound like a dick, but do you honestly think
<$.07/day is really unreasonable, even if you are "just screwing
around" with something?
