dyndnsc 0.1.1

dynamic dns update client module that tries to be extensible, re-usable and efficient on network resources

Latest Version: 0.1.2

Description:

dyndnsc is both a script to be used directly as well as a re-usable and hopefully extensible collection of classes for doing updates to dynamic dns services.

Design:

• updating a dyndns entry is done by a "DynDNS Update Protocol handler"
• detecting IPs, both in DNS or elsewhere is done using IPDetector's which all have a detect() method and bookkeeping about changes
• the DynDnsClient uses the Protocol Handler to do the updates and the IPDetectors to decide when an update needs to occur
• a dummy endless loop ( used for time.sleep() ) repeatedly asks the DynDnsClient to make sure everything is fine

Features:

• relatively easy to embed in your own application (see main() for an example)
• Growl desktop notification support (optional)

Example use:

python dyndnsc.py  --hostname test.dyndns.com --userid bob       --method=Iface,netmask:2001:0000::/32,iface:tun0,family:INET6

Other:

should work with python 2.3, tested with python 2.4 and python 2.5
