Good suggestion. I have created the file /etc/dhclient-exit-hooks but do I need to do something else to get the noip to run when the ip-address changes? I'm a beginner so i could really need some help with the details.
Thanks in advance

but I suggest not running the updater as a daemon at all.
I have the dhcp client run it automatically when the address changes, by creating /etc/dhclient-exit-hooks as follows:
#!/bin/sh
updater_prog = /usr/local/bin/noip2
if [ x$reason = xREBOOT ] || \
[ x$old_ip_address = x ] || \
[ x$old_ip_address != x$new_ip_address ]; then
if [ -x $updater_prog ]; then
${updater_prog} -i "$new_ip_address"
else
logger "dhclient-exit-hooks cannot find updater $updater_prog"
fi
fi
