I have found many of the linux ones do work, however I have yet to find the ideal client. There is a perl script available (I think from the dyndns web site) that is the best so far. It does have one major flaw: It will send updates everytime it is run. It needs to check if the IP has changed, and only send when changed. I already have a new script written to check for a IP change, but have not tested it yet. Let me know if you are interested, and I can get you the dysdns script and my add on to it. ...Michael... > On Thu, Sep 14, 2000 at 06:16:51PM -0400, Cribbins, Jason wrote: > > Is there a specific port or daemon to support DYNDNS as > detailed in RFC > > 2136.
