== NIC specific variables and examples:

o 'changeip'

The 'changeip' protocol is used by DNS services offered by changeip.com.

Configuration variables applicable to the 'changeip' protocol are:
  protocol=changeip            ##
  server=fqdn.of.service       ## defaults to nic.changeip.com
  login=service-login          ## login name and password registered with the service
  password=service-password    ##
  fully.qualified.host         ## the host registered with the service.

Example ddclient.conf file entries:
  ## single host update
  protocol=changeip,                                               \
  login=my-my-changeip.com-login,                                  \
  password=my-changeip.com-password                                \
  myhost.changeip.org

o 'dyndns2'

The 'dyndns2' protocol is a newer low-bandwidth protocol used by a
free dynamic DNS service offered by www.dyndns.org.  It supports
features of the older 'dyndns1' in addition to others.  [These will be
supported in a future version of ddclient.]

Configuration variables applicable to the 'dyndns2' protocol are:
  protocol=dyndns2             ## 
  server=fqdn.of.service       ## defaults to members.dyndns.org
  script=/path/to/script       ## defaults to /nic/update
  backupmx=no|yes              ## indicates that this host is the primary MX for the domain.
  static=no|yes                ## indicates that this host has a static IP address.
  custom=no|yes                ## indicates that this host is a 'custom' top-level domain name.
  mx=any.host.domain           ## a host MX'ing for this host definition.
  wildcard=no|yes              ## add a DNS wildcard CNAME record that points to {host}
  login=service-login          ## login name and password  registered with the service
  password=service-password    ##
  fully.qualified.host         ## the host registered with the service.

Example ddclient.conf file entries:
  ## single host update
  protocol=dyndns2,                                         \
  login=my-dyndns.org-login,                                \
  password=my-dyndns.org-password                           \
  myhost.dyndns.org 

  ## multiple host update with wildcard'ing mx, and backupmx
  protocol=dyndns2,                                         \
  login=my-dyndns.org-login,                                \
  password=my-dyndns.org-password,                          \
  mx=a.host.willing.to.mx.for.me,backupmx=yes,wildcard=yes  \
  myhost.dyndns.org,my2ndhost.dyndns.org 

  ## multiple host update to the custom DNS service
  protocol=dyndns2,                                         \
  login=my-dyndns.org-login,                                \
  password=my-dyndns.org-password                           \
