RE: [e-smith-devinfo] Dyndns.org update script, E-Smith 4.12 ( later?)

I'm using the dyndns freebee service but I suspect my address changes infrequently though I had suspicions of a problem as I'm having to do a manual update about once a month. I'm using SME 5 and I've just edited my file as you suggest so I'll post again if I get any problems etc. :¬} Nigel

I have v5 running with the free dyndns custom dns working from the e-smith for my primary domain. It was functional before I upgraded but after the upgrade to v 5 I had to put a third party client in to do the updates, I thought that it was because I was using 2 domains on the same box, however
