Jeremy,
I will have to look into this problem. Most of the time dyndns clients
will use a cache file to store the most recent update. inadyn doesn't
appear to have one. It could be possible to rig it to run via
udhcpc.script ONLY when the IP address changes by using some kind of
cache scheme that I'll cook up.
However, why are you working so hard to modify mini_httpd to not use
SSL? There is already another instance running on port 80 that you can
configure separately! If you look at the output of ps auwx, you should
see the second process running...

Yeah, the http deal was just the latest in a long string of things I just bounced the box for rather than trying to figure out what process to reset. I've sort of operated under the "if I found it in rc.conf, just reset" theory. I got the email from dyndns right after tweaking HTTPDIR so I've associated them (unfairly) in my mind.
