Re: [Nolug] Weird data in my firewall logs

You can't run a web server on port 80 on the residential side anymore
anyway. However, for other stuff, you can use CNAME records that point to
your Cox assigned hostname and that will work. Just do an nslookup on your
current ip to find out what it is if you don't know - they're all reverse
resolvable.
