Update entries in /etc/hosts from DNS

Primary LanguageShell

hosts-updater

Update entries in /etc/hosts from DNS every 5 minutes. This is most handy when using Hostname-based access control for hosts with dynamic IPs, e.g. managed via DynDNS.

Full documentation and usage can be found in the included man page, see also my BLOG.

Building a DEB

Run make deb to build the DEB package in out. You'll need to install ronn to build the package, it is used to create the man page.
