Default problems http_server

hi people, excelent job you are doing here!
i have run for several months 10-12 diferent stores, i run apache, on w2003, i had my dns server with zone edit, they send a web forward url like ww2.mydomain.comxxx were xxxx is the port receiving by apache.
ok, it works fine...i seldom have my ip adress changed, but it works all the time.
now, i had to change 4 weeks ago from zone edit to free dns, and the dns server sends url as my ip number xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy.
my ip changed yesterday and everything was changed on the dns server but, i had to change manually the config file in 15 stores and had to change all the urls of the banners!
I have a mess with the affiliates program due the links had the old ip! long time i do not program, i setup all the stores and apache.. now, how can i avoid that?
I try with cloaking, but thats only to show, maybe is a dumb question, but i dont know the answer... could someone help¿
thanks

You should use DNS and not straigh IP addresses. IP address DO CHANGE from time to time. This really mucks up SSL if your only using IP numbers..... If you move servers (even within the same datacenter - I use one of the larger ones in the world) - it may have to be on a different IP segment thus have a new IP issued....


Edit BOTH configure.php on each sites....
USE DNS names when ever possable. You can even use subdomains if you want (ie: www.flowers.mysite.com:8080 and www.herflowers.mysite.com:8080 ect...)
