Well, I'm stumped. The stupid thing not only won't work, it won't write
a single damn message to the logs indicating it even tried.

This line:

echo "update add arlandus.caresswm.org. 2000 A 192.168.1.30" | nsupdate -d

does nothing, even on the command line where one might expect to see
some error messages. nsupdate even exits successfully.

What does your "wins hook" line look like, Adam?
