EZ-IPUPDATE(8)							Dynamic DNS client						    EZ-IPUPDATE(8)

NAME

       ez-ipupdate - dynamic DNS client

SYNOPSIS

       ez-ipupdate [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the ez-ipupdate dynamic DNS client.

OPTIONS

       ez-ipupdate follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').

       -a, --address <ip address>
	      string to send as your ip address

       -b, --cache-file <file>
	      file to use for caching the ipaddress

       -c, --config-file <file>
	      configuration  file,  almost  all  arguments can be given with: <name>[=<value>] to see a list of possible config commands try "echo
	      help | ez-ipupdate -c -"

       -d, --daemon
	      run as a daemon periodicly updating if necessary

       -e, --execute <command>
	      shell command to execute after a successful update

       -f, --foreground
	      when running as a daemon run in the foreground

       -F, --pidfile <file>
	      use <file> as a pid file

       -g, --request-uri <uri>
	      URI to send updates to

       -h, --host <host>
	      string to send as host parameter

       -i, --interface <iface>
	      which interface to use

       -L, --cloak_title <host>
	      some stupid thing for DHS only

       -m, --mx <mail exchange>
	      string to send as your mail exchange

       -M, --max-interval <# of sec> max time in between updates

       -N, --notify-email <email>
	      address to send mail to if bad things happen

       -o, --offline

	      number of trys (default: 1)

       -R, --run-as-user <user>

       -Q, --run-as-euser <user>
	      change  to effective <user> for running, this is NOT secure but it does solve the problems with run-as-user and config files and pid
