How to configure DDClient?

The following is the format of configuring ddclient.

protocol=namecheap
server=dynamicdns.park-your-domain.com
login=yourdomain.com
password=your dynamic dns password
yourhost

Here is the example of its usage. If you would like to setup dynamic dns for yourdomain.com (without www), then following is its configuration:

protocol=namecheap 
server=dynamicdns.park-your-domain.com
login=yourdomain.com
password=1b9aafgfgjh1865e024fabb629dbd1d9c462
@

If you need to dynamically update a subdomain then you need to subsititute host as subdomain. To dynamically update the domain itself (yourdomain.com), you need to replace host with @.
