I use ZoneEdit as well and it works fine.  Just be advised that you are not
allowed to update more than once per hour unless your IP address has
changed.  I've actually received nasty grams to that effect when I first
started.  So now I use a script that compares my current IP with my previous
IP.  If they are the same, nothing happens.  If they are different, a lynx
command is executed to update, similar to the one above.

Cheers,

Drew
