Update Virtual Server IP from the command line???

is it possible to update the virtual servers ip address via command line?

Reason being, my isp changes my ip a dozen time a day, and I'd like to write a script(program) that instantly updates my virtual servers from the command line. Is this possible? and if so, how?

Thanks.

Howdy,

I haven't tried what you're trying to do using the command line tools before, but it's worth a shot... if you run "virtualmin" from the command line, you'll see a number of options you can use.

I think what you're after would be accessible by running "virtualmin modify-domain", which would allow you to change the IP address in there.

These are the available options which would I choose to update all domains and how exactly would I type it in. I'm new to linux. Forgive me for my ignorance. Thanks.

virtualmin modify-domain --domain domain.name

would it not be easier and more practical to get a free account at dyndns or so?
