I recently got a Custom DNS off of DynDNS.org. Now, the thing is, I want to know how I can get a custom hostmask or something for my server. Is it possible with my current setup, or am I thinking too big? I know other people who have done the same thing, and appear as user@custom.domain.hostmask on IRC.

Is there any relatively simple way to do it? I'm on an ADSL connection.

My understanding of it is it's up to your internet provider you'll have to talk to them about getting authority over your reverse dns and you'll have to setup a Nameserver.
