Two Webcams - Separate Dyndns hostnames

I have two webcams configured in my router, static ips for both, and separate hostnames from Dyndns. The first cam is on default port 80 and configured that way in Port forwarding. The 2nd cam is on port 12000 and configured that way in Port forwarding. From a remote location, either Dyndns hostname brings up cam #1 on port 80. What am I doing wrong,and how do I fix it? Thanks

OK..I used the wrong term when I said account, as the second is a different hostname under the same account. Both hostnames are under the cochise422 account. So..with that..I will try your advice and post the results. Thank you for the answer!

Don't forget to apply the tick if the answer worked for you - that's how we know it worked ;)

I clicked on the second hostname, then selected Webhop, and what do I use for the redirect URL?

Because for HTTP port 80 is the default port - to access the second camera you have to specify the non standard port in the form of http://myhost.example.com:12000/.

What you might want to do is to drop the second account (it doesn't get you anything, and it is in breach of DynDNS's acceptable use policy, point 3) and create a second hostname in your other account as a WebHop redirecting to port 12000.
