I think your answer can already be found on this forum:
just follow the DHCP Update link !

Thank,
but I mean I have a dinamic ip address given by my isp.

DHCP is enabled in my duigibutler and I can access it but my ip changes and if I don't know the new ip i cannot access.

I can access by the address 192.168.1.101 but not from the internet.

I have read I need a DNS program who knows when my ip changes an redirect to the new address.

Somebody knows what I mean?

Your ISP has not given you the address 192.168.1.101, it is a private network address. So I assume you have a NAT capable firewall or router connected to the internet. The address 192.168.1.101 is probably given by the DHCP server in the firewall/router.

Then there are two steps to access your DigiButler from the internet:

1) Forward access on port 80 to your DigiButler (192.168.1.101). How this is done depends on which firewall/router you are using (RTFM).
2) Subscribe to a service that is notified when your ip address changes. It is free, and you choose a name to use instead of the ip address directly. I use no-ip.com: http://www.no-ip.com/services/managed_dns/free_dynamic_dns.html

If you have no firewall/router (which is not likely), just skip the first step.

Hope this helps.
