debian with no-ip

Hi.
I have VB on my XP SP3. I am running one guest OS, Debian. I installed it using the 150MB, and everything seems to work fine.
I am using 3.1.6 VB

The purpose of this server is running php, mysql and django project.

So I need access both locally and externally.
I usually do it with my no-ip. I have experience with Ubuntu server, and using noip2 was a cake.

I had this "domain" xxx.no-ip.org.
I need this to be use on my debian server, so that I can type xxx.no-ip.org into the firefox (on my xp).
This no-ip is based on DNS.

I checked ifconfig, pstree and I can tell debian is grabbing the right ip (it matches with my ip), and pstree shows noip2 is activated (under init.d)

But I can't access to xxx.no-ip.org
how come?

back in the days when I used ubuntu as its own installation (instead of VM), noip2 worked like a cake without any twist.

Any thoughts? Thank you!
