=head1 NAME
distdns - Distribute hostnames between clients
=head1 SYNOPSIS
./client.pl [options]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The distdns scripts originated as an alternative to established dynamic DNS services.
It features basically two scripts: client-side F<client.pl> and server-side F<server.cgi>.
The client sends (once configured) personal network/computer/user name data to the server
which stores it as JSON if access is granted and data is complete.
When F<client.pl> is invoked (preferably by a scheduler, for example: cronjob), it also
receives hostnames with according IP addresses which are written to a matching network
marker within the hosts file. This allows then to use these hostnames to connect to
machines.
