# NearlyFreeSpeech.NET Dynamic DNS
This script will update the `A` DNS record for a domain/subdomain at [NearlyFreeSpeech.NET](https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net)
This script will update the `A` DNS record (and optionally, the `AAAA` records) for a domain/subdomain at [NearlyFreeSpeech.NET](https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net)
with the public IP address for the machine the script runs on. Run this script on a server in which the public IP
address is dynamic and changes so your domain is always up to date.

## How It Works
There are two steps to this script. First, it retrieves the configured IP address for the domain/subdomain, the current public
IP address of the server, and then compares the two. If the public IP address is different, it updates the `A` record of
IP address of the server, and then compares the two. If the public IP address is different, it updates the `A` (and, if configured, the `AAAA`) record(s) of
the domain/subdomain with the new IP address.
