A static external IP is highly reccomended, unless you want to have to give out your new IP every time your external IP address changes.
That is true but they can still use a domain waht will be the easy I think?
I did check it with my server and it work for doamins but what it dose it gets the IP out of the domain, rather than using the domain it self....
Sure, you can use a domain. However, when you add the server to your favourites the domain is resolved to an IP and stored as an IP. Therefore, when your IP changes the old IP will remain in the favourites and not contact the server properly. However, it does make it easier to give out any address changes.

Due to this, a static IP is still highly recommended, but not essential to the running of a server.
That is something i didnt think about but yes that is a huge problem if your using a dymaic IP.
Will that be in SA:MP 0.3? If not it will be good if it is.
