UPDATEDD(1)                      User Commands                     UPDATEDD(1)


NAME

       updatedd - client to update dynamic domain name records


SYNOPSIS

       updatedd [OPTION]... SERVICE -- ...


DESCRIPTION

       Updatedd is a program to update the IP address of a dynamic domain name
       record.  The program is divided in one main program (updatedd) and
       several plugins. For each dynamic dns service exists one plugin.
       Notice that you should use updatedd-wrapper instead of running updatedd
       directly.

       There are two kinds of options: upper-case letters, which apply to the
       main program, and lower-case letters, which are passed on to the
       plugins.  This manual only describes the options for the updatedd
       program itself.  Type 'updatedd <plugin> -- --help' for information on
       plugin-specific options.

       -L     List supported services (installed plugins) and exit.

       -Y     Use syslog instead of stdout.

       --help Print help and exit.

       --version
              Print version information and exit.

       Use `updatedd <service> -- --help' to get help for one of the plugins
       (suported services).
