Dyndns hostname with DD-wrt?

Hello, I've been using dd-wrt for almost a year now but am wondering how to use my dyndns hostname on lan computers? I'm running a web server and would like to be able to access it by using my dyndns hostname rather than the lan IP of my server.

My old router did this automatically. I've read something about enabling loopback, not sure whether or not that's what I should be looking for...

Thanks in advance for any help

Under setup there is a tab

Under setup there is a tab named ddns. Click on that tab and select dyndns dynamic and fill in your username and password for the service. You can tell it how often to sync your ip. You can then your your name.dyn.dns.org name to access your web server. If you really want to get fancy with it, look at the link below.
