 ## Description
 
 dyndnsd.rb aims to implement a small [DynDNS-compliant](https://help.dyn.com/remote-access-api/) server in Ruby supporting IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. It has an integrated user and hostname database in it's configuration file that is used for authentication and authorization. Besides talking the DynDNS protocol it is able to invoke an so-called *updater*, a small Ruby module that takes care of supplying the current host => ip mapping to a DNS server.
