I'm probably just missing an obvious page or file. My current understanding is:

1) edit **/etc/IPdetect/IPdetect.conf**, in my case using the 'last' and 'browser' settings.

2) get the code or URL from your dynamic dns service that signals them that your ip address has changed

3) edit **/etc/IPdetect/change_run.sh** and add the service's script or URL to update your entries

In my case, using freedns.afraid.org, I retrieved their generated "Direct URL" for my domain from  and added **curl -silent http://freedns.afraid.org/dynamic/update.php?azR2<more random chars>BA==**
to /etc/IPdetect/change_run.sh

Oh, and I uncommented the IP\_CHANGE\_EXEC setting in the conf file.

Is there a tutorial that I've missed that spells things out like this, and where I can reality check if I've missed anything?

Thanks much  ~  Ivo in Seattle
