I can't afford a static IP address so I was wondering if there's an alternative to leasing a static IP address? I don't want to use noip.com etc because they won't work for my SQL server issue below. I'm not well versed with IPV6 but can I use the IPV6 as a permanent solution or does that change often as well when the computer reboots. Is there any alternative to static IP addresses that will allow me to create a VPN on my host machine?
I have sql server database on machine A that has incoming data from various sources. I can replicate the data to another sql server database on machine B using peer to peer replication when both the machines are on the same home network. I want to be able to replicate the data on machine B when I'm traveling away from home. How can I do that? I tried using the IPV6 address to connect for replication but sql server it says I should use the actual server name instead of IP address for replication purposes. Is there a way around it by using vpn or some other solution?
Thanks
