      Is it possible to use pfsense as a ddns server? I have a business location with a static IP and my home and a second business location with dynamic IPs. I would like to be able to use the one at the static location as a ddns server for the other two. I don't plan to host any websites but do need to access all locations to monitor security cameras, access remote computers, and possibly run an ftp server. I would like to be able to enter the static ip:port and be forwarded to the corresponding remote machine.

        I would probably setup VPN between the two locations so you can access it using the internal private IP. The client side can be at the dynamic site where it connect out to he fixed site.

        I would also connect from home over VPN too.
