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. ## Requirements
