Dudders 1.04

Dudders is a utility for updating DNS records.<br />Dudders spells "Dynamically Updating DNS Duly Embracing RSA SIG(0)" (with some poetic license). It points a domain name to a given IP address, using a DNS message secured by public-key cryptography. Dudders utilises the DNS UPDATE protocol to update a DNS "A record", and a SIG(0) signature to provide cryptographic security. It is designed with embedded systems (such as OpenWRT and FreeWRT) in mind. This has several implications for users:<br /><br /> * you can't use it do do all the things DNS UPDATE can do,<br /> * it will error and exit rather than dealing with problems;<br /> * it will fit and work on your embedded device!<br /><br />For a general purpose DNS UPDATE utility where space is not a concern, use ISC's nsupdate, which is distributed with BIND. Other free clients with similar functionality to update an A record (without necessarily using the DNS UPDATE protocol) include:<br /><br /> * ddclient,<br /> * ez-ipupdate,<br /> * updatedd,<br /> * ipupdate, and<br /> * dnssec-tools's ifup-dyndns
