A suggestion. Since a major motivation of doing Dynamic DNS with
PowerDNS is to avoid using third-party services, it would be possible to
both eliminate the need to change the IP location service and to
eliminate the third-party service if the client were changed to call a
script at the PowerAdmin user's own site.
The one-line script: http://example.com/poweradmin/addons/my_ip.php
<?php echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; ?>
Here's a patch for dynamic_dns_client.pl:
