Indeed. Breaking the circle. :)

I was more thinking about having to deal with supporting users on a more
extended base than just "private" or "mouth propaganda". Those CPEs are
deployed in large numbers, and as soon as folks realize what their shiny
new non-NATted IPv6 connectivity offers, I guess IPv6 dynamic DNS
services will become quite popular...

You'd definately need a portal for people to create/administer accounts,
implement miscreant defense etc.

I've just noticed that one of the vendors actually has an option to
define a custom update URL using variables for
username/password/IP-address etc.

Would be interesting to know wether dyn.com already has a clear syntax
for v4-only/v6-only/dual-stacked updates in place.

Best regards,
