Summary : Tool updating DNS data for dynamic IP addresses
URL : http://github.com/leamas/ddupdate
License : MIT
Description :
: A tool to update dynamic IP addresses typically obtained using DHCP
: with dynamic DNS services such as changeip.com, duckdns.org or no-ip.com.
: It makes it possible to access a machine with a fixed name like
: myhost.duckdns.org even if the ip address changes. ddupdate caches the
: address, and only attempts the update if the address actually is changed.
:
: The tool has a plugin structure with plugins for obtaining the actual
: address (typically hardware-dependent) and to update it (service depen‐
: dent). For supported services, it's a linux-centric, user-friendly and
: flexible alternative to the ubiquitous ddclient.
:
: ddupdate is distributed with systemd support to run at regular intervals,
: and with NetworkManager templates to run when interfaces goes up or down.
