+dyndns updater
+==============
+
+You need a running BIND on a server box with root access.
+You also need a new zone for your dyndns host.
+
+1) Add new user dyndns to your DNS server box.
+2) Read the nsupdate manpage at find out how to use it. 
+   Create a nsupdate key called your-host-name if your host
+   is your.host.name. 
+3) Copy the nsupdate key files of your host to ~dyndns and
+   chown them to the dyndns user.
+4) Also read the ssh manpage because you need to gerenate 
+   a RSA Public Key if you want to update a dyndns host via
+   SSH without an interactive password prompt.
+5) Create an empty /var/log/lastnsupdate.log file and chown
+   it to the user dyndns.
+
+Further explanation:
+
+Call this script from a DynDNS-client box:
+Syntax: 
+  ssh dyndns@dyndnsserver /path/to/dyndns-update \
+  your.host.name. TYPE new-entry TIMEOUT
+An real example: 
+  ssh dyndns@dyndnsserver /path/to/dyndns-update \
+  local.buetow.org. A 137.226.50.91 30
+
+Because its a dyndns host, we set the timeout to very low
+30 seconds.
+
+If you use ppp on your client box, then you may add the 
+following lines to your /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup file:
+
+ ! sh -c "echo \"MYADDR `date`\" >> /var/log/ips.log"
+ !bg /usr/bin/ssh dyndns@dyndnsserver \
+  /path/to/update-dyndns your.host.name. A MYADDR 30
+
+Here you need to generate a SSH RSA public key to allow root
+to ssh into dyndns@dyndnsserver without a password. Ask 
+google or read the manpage and try it out! RTFM!
+
+your.host.name's A record should be changed to the dyndns 
+client's new ip address each time the internet protocol 
+number changes.
+You may use the tools nslookup and dig to check if its working.
+
+Thanks to Lars Engels for some nice ideas concerning 
+ppp.linkup and nsupdate! :).
