Summary0010386: Creation of script for merchant cases without fixed IP
DescriptionIn scenarios where the IP (often) changes, DNS records (also when DynDNS is not supported; providers like hosttech.ch ship in certain/modern abo models an API for DNS editing) needs to be updated regularly; an automatic solution shall also make sure the (proxied) merchant must be available by the claimed address (similarly how a Tor realy does it).

As for checking if the merchant is properly achievable, the merchant docu says the following (cf. https://docs.taler.net/taler-merchant-manual.html):

"If everything worked as expected, the command

wget -O - http://localhost:9966/config

should return some basic configuration status data about the service."
