Not any technical issues, it was just more moving pieces than I want. BuddyNS is a fine service but having to force an update with an email seemed pretty hacky.

- tom_fitzhenry 14y agoYou can use DNS NOTIFY rather than sending an email. When the primary is updated, DNS NOTIFY will tell each secondary about the change. DNS NOTIFY is standardised in: https://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1996.txt https://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1996.txt BIND 8+ supports it by default, according to http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/networking_2ndEd/dns/ch10_03.htm http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/networking_2ndEd/dns/ch10_03.h... There is a perl script to achieve the same thing in djbdns, according to http://www.fefe.de/djbdns/#notify http://www.fefe.de/djbdns/#notify (which joe_bleau alluded to).
