in reply to Dyndns.org Updating Client

If anyone cares to tell me how to change my call to nslookup to something more perl-ish (or more portable), I'd be glad to change it.

Net::DNS is your friend in this matter :)

    Net::DNS doesn't seem to like my Cygwin Perl 5.8.1 install at home, nor my Cygwin 5.8.0 install at work :-( When I get a chance I'll file bug reports to the author.

    Update:Perl 5.8.2 just got released for Cygwin, and Net::DNS works fine.. although I still prefer the solution given below. It doesn't require more modules, and I like that :-)

      I didn't know this. The CPAN test page doesn't show passed, nor failed tests for cygwin of new(er) versions :(

      What about Net::Nslookup ?

      Update: sorry, but I don't have a Win32 system that I could use to test this on myself
