Hi Mark, thanks for this info, dyndns.org may be a better method than
ZoneEdit.

Question for anyone:

I'm trying to find a client that will update the dyndns.org info. The
difficulty is that I have a hardware firewall (SMC 7004 Barricade)
between my machine and my DSL modem, thus my "real world" IP address
isn't in my machine anywhere and the dyndns.org update clients can't get
hold of it so they can send it to dyndns.org.

It's easy to get the IP, I just read the firewall HTML page which
contains the number (I've done it for years in my own logging scripts).
But I haven't yet found a dyndns update client that will let me supply
the IP to it on the command line.

Does anyone know of a dyndns.org update client which lets you put the IP
on the command line?

Thanks much,

- Peter
