That app seems work nicely except for one thing: it sends the password
in cleartext using HTTP. The application doesn't support SSL
connections to the server that's used to update DDNS addresses,
and apparently the server doesn't support digest authentication.

I'm not happy about that password being sent in cleartext. :/

They have a nicely documented API, and the server does support HTTPS,
so it may be time to write my own DDNS client daemon.
