Good I don't want dynamic updates. And this Client IP has no authority to send updates to me. > Or... tell the client IP address to disable dynamic DNS updates to your > server. This is what needs to be done, How do you tell it to stop this ?? By default it should be off, I see nowhere where they have turned it on. Any hints ?? Maybe something else is running the nsupdate command ??
