asterisk users - Aug 2005 - Chan_sccp and dynamic DNS

Hi, everybody.

I was just running into a DynDNS Problem.
One of our phones has a fixed IP, but the * box only has a dynDNS IP and a
fixed name. So all phones running SIP are able to "survive" the change
of
the IP address, but not our Cisco 7920 - it changes state to "connecting to
CM0" and hangs there until reboot. After reboot it looks up the current IP
address of the * box and works fine for the next 24 hours.

My question now is: Is there an option in sccp.conf or somewhere else to
tell the 7920 to do DNS lookups once in a while so it updates the IP address
dynamically?

Any help there would be great!

Thanks in advance.

Why don't you chuck a network card in the box and connect to the internal
side?
