Re: DNS serrver update via client?

I am not sure that I can rely on DHCP being implemented in the project
I am working on. I will need to look into that.

This is what I was envisioning, never got too far into this so don't
laugh ;)

Create a method (function) that would update a DNS server something
like the following:

void UpdateDnsServer( char *systemName, unsigned long ipAddress);

It would then send a network message to the DNS server that would cause
the server to add the relationship so that any future DNS queries would
resolve <systemName> to <ipAddress>.
