Hi guys, I am currently involved in the DTC (www.gplhost.com/software-dtc.html) project which is a full hosting control panel. It also supports Dynamic DNS based on a URL post. Perhaps it would make more sense to extend DTC (since it already supports user management and zone management) so that it could act as a more solid Dynamic DNS provider ?
