You might want to look at "The Perl Journal", Issue 16, Winter 1999.
There is an article "Dynamic DNS Updates with Perl" by Jon Drukman.

This article is available on-line at http://www.perljournal.com, IF you
are a subscriber.  Or you might have a friend with a copy of the
article, or a university library.

This article is a fairly nice description of the dynamic DNS update
mechanism available inside Perl.  It uses the Net::DNS Perl resolver
module written by Michael Fuhr.  This is available from
http://www.fuhr.org/~mfuhr/perldns/.

Note that Michael includes LOTS of disclaimers about this module, but
many people are using is successfully.
