== CONFIGURING ${program}

The configuration file, ${program}.conf, can be used to define the
default behaviour and operation of ${program}.  The file consists of
sequences of global variable definitions and host definitions.

Global definitions look like:
  name=value [,name=value]*

For example:
  daemon=5m                   
  use=if, if=eth0             
  proxy=proxy.myisp.com       
  protocol=dyndns2

specifies that ${program} should operate as a daemon, checking the
eth0 interface for an IP address change every 5 minutes and use the
'dyndns2' protocol by default. The daemon interval can be specified
as seconds (600s), minutes (5m), hours (1h) or days (1d).

Host definitions look like:
  [name=value [,name=value]*]* a.host.domain [,b.host.domain] [login] [password]

For example:
  protocol=hammernode1, \\
  login=my-hn-login, password=my-hn-password  myhost.hn.org
  login=my-login, password=my-password  myhost.dyndns.org,my2nd.dyndns.org

specifies two host definitions.  

The first definition will use the hammernode1 protocol,
my-hn-login and my-hn-password to update the ip-address of
myhost.hn.org and my2ndhost.hn.org.

The second host definition will use the current default protocol
('dyndns2'), my-login and my-password to update the ip-address of
myhost.dyndns.org and my2ndhost.dyndns.org.

The order of this sequence is significant because the values of any
global variable definitions are bound to a host definition when the
host definition is encountered.

See the sample-${program}.conf file for further examples.

  login=service-login          ## login name and password  registered with the service
  password=service-password    ##
  fully.qualified.host         ## the host registered with the service.

  server=fqdn.of.service       ## defaults to freedns.afraid.org
  login=service-login          ## login name and password registered with the service
  password=service-password    ##
  fully.qualified.host         ## the host registered with the service.

Example ${program}.conf file entries:
  ## single host update
  protocol=freedns,                                             \\
  login=my-freedns.afraid.org-login,                            \\

The 'dtdns' protocol is the protocol used by the dynamic hostname services
of the 'DtDNS' dns services. This is currently used by the free
dynamic DNS service offered by www.dtdns.com.
    
Configuration variables applicable to the 'dtdns' protocol are:
  protocol=dtdns               ## 
  server=www.fqdn.of.service   ## defaults to www.dtdns.com
  password=service-password    ## password registered with the service
  client=name_of_updater       ## defaults to $program (10 chars max, no spaces)
  fully.qualified.host         ## the host registered with the service.
