	Hello there,
My name is Scott.  I am from the U.S. and live in northern Minnesota up by
the Canadian border.  I ran in to Openwrt a couple of weeks ago and did some
reading even bought older routers to support it and enjoy it very much so
far.
I just installed Openwrt on a Linksys wrt54G with version 2.2.  The
installation went smooth with White Russian.  The packaging system that is
used is very awesome since I like apt-get a lot.  It does work a lot like
apt-get.  Good job.
I now have a few questions.

1.  I installed ez-ipupdate and I want to get my domain from dyndns to be
assigned to a certain ip address on my network.  Can this be done?
2.  Another question about ez-ipupdater is when it asks for the interface.
Is it looking for the Ethernet connection say like eth3?
3.  I would like to be able to make it where my Linux server is seen on the
Internet so that my web site will work correctly.  Is there anything special
I need to do for this?
4.  Lastly where is there a better description of the packages for Openwrt?
Also are there other sites where I can get packages for Openwrt?

Scott
