Description-en: Issues dynamic DNS v3 requests
Dynamic DNS fixes your domain name when your IP address varies with
permanent connections like cable modems. Your ISP may charge extra
for DNS. Free dynamic DNS with a range of domain names is available
from sites like dyndns.org, hn.org and ddns.nu. You set up an account
and domain name with your browser at the dynamic DNS site then update
the IP periodically with an appropriate client program.
.
This package installs a DNS update client, ddns3, for Dynamic DNS
version 3 used by server ddns.nu in Sydney, Australia. After server
account creation edit /etc/default/ddns3-client to activate ddns3.
