RE: [IPCop-devel] DynDNS-Update takes very long since 1.4.10

[SpamCatcher <ec...@fr...>]

Thanks for this sugestion Peter.

I took a look at the file mentioned, but it was 63 bytes :-(

Too bad i have got this hint only now, because this afternoon i checked
the "minimize update" option, so i can not tell, how the file "settings"
looked like, before this manipulation.

I will observe the update-times and see, if something is changing...

Regards
Ecki
