Dear David,

I would be happy to write a little article if others would benefit,
but what do you refer to exactly with "how it is done?"

As for space, I assume you are referring here to website space, not
merely a post to the newsgroup which will be archived? In any case, I
am happy to write an article, and as my own website is a non-permanent
dynamic DNS experimental site, I would accept with gratitude your
offer of space.

Best regards,
Gernot
