DTDNS or rather darktech.org.  It is a dynamic hosting service.  I do have a
static IPv4 IP, so do not really need to update, but it served the purpose.  I
checked with them about AAAA records and they are not (yet) set up for that.

Apparently the next release of Synchronet will have full IPv6 support as well. 
The code is not yet complete I was told.  When it is there will be a new
release out of beta.
