Seems a little complicated to me. Besides who has lynx installed anymore :-)
simple matter to change to w3m :)
The cmdline arguments probably aren't the same, but never mind.
which also requires a browser, w3m/lynx/links/elinks/....
or curl/wget, but no sed'ing and awk'ing. Anyway, typically you wouldn't need to know your IP when doing a dyndns update. With dns24 for instance, you just specify "data=client" when you're updating. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (11.4°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
