>From further reading it appears that Dynamic DNS refers to the ability
to have a record updated by some external tool regardless of the
frequency. I just wrongly associated it with the type of service
offered by dyndns.org in which the device automatically updates the
server with its new dynamic ip when it changes or the device itself
restarts.

I am now working with bind and would like to know if there are some
tools tnat allow BIND9 zones to be updated.

but I am not sure if that refers to new zones or new resource records
for a zone.

Can anyone clarify that?

Thanks
