Okay...a little research has turned up the following utility from the bind-utils-9.2.1 package: nsupdate. If you're running dhcpcd as your DHCP client, you can define a dhcpcd.exe script to run nsupdate with the appropriate arguments after a new lease is received. You'll probably need to parse your interfaces and hostname in the script to get it all to work right, but /bin/awk, /bin/hostname, and /sbin/ifconfig should be all you need to get nsupdate running smoothly. I'm not running this myself, you understand, but if you need a little help parsing your config let me know. I'll be glad to help. -- "Of course I'm in shape!
