Looking for a way to create dynamic dns system without using nsupdate

[Brian Johnson]

File size is my issue

I'm hoping to do it with tools that I already have installed

I'm working on a 20 line busybox shell script that uses wget to call a php
script on a web server

I'm hoping I can feed arguments to the php script and have it run nsupdate on
the server
