The use of '-O' came from namecheap.com in response to the question, 'What is the required string, etc"

Quote:

First of all, you need to enable Dynamic DNS (DDNS) for the domain name. You can do it in the following way: log in to your Namecheap account, go to Manage Domains and click on the domain name. Then click on Dynamic DNS at the bottom of the left menu and enable DDNS. After that you will be able to update the IP address using the following command:

wget -O 'https://dynamicdns.park-your-domain.com/update?host=hostname&domain=example.com&password=your DDNS password'

If you need to update the root domain (i.e. 'example.com'), the value of 'host' should be @ (e.g. host=@). If you need to update 'www.example.com', the value should be as follows: host=www. Here are the exapmples for both 'example.com' and 'www.example.com':

wget -O 'https://dynamicdns.park-your-domain.com/update?host=@&domain=example.com&password=your DDNS password'

wget -O 'https://dynamicdns.park-your-domain.com/update?host=www&domain=example.com&password=your DDNS password'

Hope this helps.

I needed to output the result to a log hence the additional code.

Unless you can see anything wrong with the output to the logfile, it seems your suggestion solves the problem?

asadmin-stop-instance(1AS)					   User Commands					asadmin-stop-instance(1AS)

NAME

       asadmin-stop-instance, stop-instance - stops the specified server instance and all the services associated with it

SYNOPSIS

       stop-instance  [--user  admin_user]  [--password  admin_password]  [--host local_host] [--port 4848] [--local=false] [--domain domain_name]
       [--secure|-s]instance_name

       Use the stop-instance to stop the instance with the instance name specified. The stop-instance can be run both locally and  remotely.   The
       named instance must already exist within the given domain; and the instance must be running.

OPTIONS

       --user		       administrative user associated for the instance.

       --password	       administrative password corresponding to the administrative user.

       --host		       host name of the machine hosting the administrative instance.

       --port		       administrative port number associated with the administrative host.

       --local		       determines if the command should delegate the request to administrative instance or run locally.

       --domain 	       name of the domain.

       --passwordfile	       file containing passwords appropriate for the command (e.g., administrative instance).

       --secure 	       if true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the administrative instance.

OPERANDS

       instance_name	       name of the instance to be stopped.

       Example 1: Using stop-instance in local mode

       asadmin> stop-instance --local --domain domain1 server1
       Instance server1 stopped

       Where: the server1 instance associated with the domain1 domain is stopped locally.

       Example 2: Using stop-instance in remote mode

       asadmin> stop-instance --user admin --password bluestar --host localhost --port 4848 server1
       Instance server1 stopped

       Where: the server1 instance associated with the named user, password, host and port is deleted from the remote machine.
