Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : inadyn Version : v1.60-5.june.2004 Upstream Author : Narcis Ilisei <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://inarcis.homeip.net/inadyn * License : GPL Description : A client that allows some control over an `open' name server.
With this package the user can have an Internet name for his machine without the need to manage or own a name server or a static IP. It works by being a client of an 'open' name server and updating the server's records when the need arise. The servers that are supported are http://www.dyndns.org and http://freedns.afraid.org. Some of the services of these servers are free of charge. This is a command line tool that is written in portable ANSI C with a little OS abstraction layer. It can maintain multiple host names with the same IP address, and has a web based IP detection which runs well behind a NAT router. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i586) Kernel: Linux 2.6.5-4.pentium1.1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C -- "If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange apples then you and I will still each have one apple.
