- This program is supposed to be a replacement for dynamic dns services that are you can use to access a home server from anywhere.
- The problem that this tries to solve is that, traditionally, when IP addresses change, the a-record must be changed manually to point to the new IP address in order for the server to be acessible again.
- dynamic-dns solves this problem by checking the public IP address every 5 minutes and sending a request to the Amazon Route53 API to change the IP address to point to the correct public IP address.
