Package: ipcheck (0.233-2)

Dyndns.org client to register your dynamic IP address

The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, allowing your computer to be more easily accessed from various locations on the Internet.

This is a simple Python script to register your dynamic IP address using the NIC V2.0 protocol.

The script is very easy to use and supports multiple methods for determining the external IP (parsing interfaces on the local machine, web based IP detection, direct support for devices from Linksys, Netgear, Draytek, Netopia, HawkingTech, Watchgard, Cayman, Nexland, ZyXEL, SMC, Compex, UgatePlus, DLink and Cisco). It also supports the dyndns offline mode.

Starting with version 0.141, ipcheck uses https by default and will fall back to http if a timeout occurs.
