Description:

DDDNSD-Java is a background service to dynamically update
your IP-Adress in a DNS Zone file. It is compatible
with most linux / unix based operating systems

NOTICE

You will probably need a secondary nameserver with
an static IP-Address to which your nameserver will
send the updated zone, or another dynamic domain
which is always up to date. For example using puck.nether.net
or he.net which are both supported by this program
(dynamic master ip update).
