Dear Ed and Roger, I think it is getting solved. I talked to the system administrator and assured of that their D-Link Dl-604 router supports DynDNS. It means that it is not necessary to set up an IP refresh utility on the server. The router cares about everthing. I just set the default gw address. The router has a web based admin surface. It supports IP forwarding and many more. Next week I can try it out. After that I'll refer. Thak you both for your help.
