It's written in C so you don't need to install Perl or Python on your
soekris box...Which he doesn't recommend at all
installation consists of an executable, a config file and a certificate
which is needed for the https connection with dyndns

* it can run in daemon mode
* hence in http your user & pasword details are send in cleartext, support
is added for https
* you can force an update with SIGUSR1
* it can send an email when it has performed an update
* optimised for Soekris 4501
* Easy to install

btw what's a sigusr1?

Gary,

I found an alternative tool which may work, but neither Kristian or I
speak french so we're having a hard time with their web page.  If there
is anyone who is able to decipher french, look at this web page and tell
us if they support updates only when the IP address changes.

The thing that caught my eye when looking at this is the https protocol
which I believe inadyn does not currently support.

Another possible option for you is to have a PC inside your network do
the updates using ddclient.  I've used a ddclient behind the firewall
box for years without problems.  Just disable it on the Astlinux box and
set it up on a different machine.
