Victor, did you ever find a slot in all of your voluminous free time (har
har) to see if Tracker Client could update a DYNDNS server?

I found the developer page on DYNDNS.ORG at http://clients.dyndns.org/devel/

It looks fairly simple to someone with the requisite Newton programming
skills (i.e. not me.)

The basic procedure is

1. Obtain IP (either from OS or, if using a NAT router by hitting
checkip.dyndns.org and parsing the result.)

2. Send an HTTP GET with the authentication, domain, and IP in the
specified format.

3. Parse the result code.

Just thought I'd pass this along in case you were still interested in
looking into it.

Thanks,

-Jeremy
