DNS Lookup for IP address (New)
By: Jordi Pujol i Palomer (jordipujol) - 2007-11-28 11:17
when working with a Live OS, ddclient cache files are not saved, 
and when restarting the machine, ddclient allways updates the Dns service. 
An alternative to cache is the DNS lookup, don't use cache only perform a DNS lookup. 
If the address obtained from the DNS answer is wrong, do the update. 
I suggest a new option "-dnslookup" to change this behaviour. 
Here is a patch to implement this option, 
Also I want to include the option "dnslookup=yes" in the ddclient.conf file, but I don't have reached the right coding.
