I need the help of the smartest people.

I currently have some esp8266 working as client connecting to a server (C # application).

Use to connect the following: Client.connect (server, PORT)

the server address is: byte server [4] = {192,168,1,100};

everything works perfect it plugs perfectly.

However I need to make it connect to the server through a DDNS (server.ddns.net) for example but I do not know how to enter that value in the arduino IDE for ESP.

It would be lake type: string server {server.ddns.net} ??? I do not know I need this help .. please !!!

Client.connect (SERVER, PORT)

If I use an app for smartphone (tcp client) for example and I send connect to that server address it works, by esp does not work!
