ddclient - DNS record updating

Use this contrib when you have a sme server connected to a ISP service using a dynamic IP, and you wish to host multiple domains.

ddclient is a client for updating dynamic DNS entries for domains hosted at different DNS providers.

Configure your dynamic host domains via the ddclient server manager panel.

ddclient can be used on servers configured in server gateway mode or in server only mode.
