To update DynDNS with your external IP you need to install a DynDNS client on Bubba. Follow these steps:

  1. Access your bubba via SSH (see Howto/Get ssh access for information how to accomplish this)
  2. Change to the user root: 
    su
    When asked for password, type excito and press enter
  3. Install the application ddclient: 
    apt-get install ddclient
  4. Optional step, edit the config file to match your DynDNS settings: 
    nano /etc/ddclient.conf

Thats all!
