Johannes,

I've read your blog post and i fully agree that DNS changes (dynamic
DNS) and dynamic IPv6 allocation for LAN (DHCP-PD) is a big issue.
Couple of years ago i addressed this issue and came up with a personal
solution (you can test it and use it for free if you want).

Of course, for "normal" end-users this is not a problem. But for companies having several remote offices behind such ISP lines, this is a problem. (And of course, for me as a network guy, too. ;))
