[geeks] Dynamic DNS linux update client

Anyone here use the Dynamic DNS service through dyndns.org and update
the IP address with a linux client?

I just set up a video surveillance machine at my moms house.  It's
running on a Linux machine.  She has DSL with a dymanic IP and the
linux box is behind a firewall.  I'd like to be able to hop on that
machine every once in a while to clear out the false alarms.

Anyone have a similar setup?  Any ideas on how to keep the IP address
updated automatically from the Linux box?

Thanks!
Matt
