    I have my domain name pointed to with dyndns and have messed it up a bit (changed to expert mode!).

    While I used to be able to see my site using

    http://mysite.com or
    http://www.mysite.com,

    after messing with the host types, I now have to set them seperately which means my dynamic ip updater only updates one of the ip's therefore, I can't see my site typing http://www.mysite.com

    Basically, in my dyndns setup I have 
    host:                   TTL:           Type:            Data:
mysite.com          4500            A                 (updated IP)
www.mysite.com  4500            A                  (old IP,not upated)

    Now I could set up my ip update client to update the both but i have a feeling they are set up wrong. I'm sure I shouldn't have two type A Hosts?

    Unless you are using Bind shortcuts you would have to have two A records OR you could create a CNAME for the second one.
