[arm-allstar] V1.5 question

[Steve Agee]

Justin,

You have already pretty much answered your own question. As root:

apt-get install ddclient

It will ask you which of the popular services you want, and walk you 
through the process with menu prompts. I use the dyndns.org service 
myself, but you are able to pick from several others as well.
