DNS Update Loop
The client's purpose is to keep a hostname up to date with a user's current IP address. This is done with a loop:
- Detect IP Change - Check for changes to the current IP address
- Perform Update - If the IP address has changed or a user updates any setting
- Process Return - Parse return code
- Notify User - Perform logging, notify the user (if necessary), shutdown on fatal errors
