I'm going to do a deployment of LocustWorld MeshBoxes in some of our remote locations. Build 90 comes with Asterisk 1.0, and our plan is to use the MeshBoxes as a WAP for non-Asterisk uses but also to add a 2nd NIC to deploy Snom's in the remote location. This works fine (was suprisingly easy to do), and I have the Meshbox running Asterisk and IAX'ing to our primary no problem. They will be on a cable ISP for the broadband that only gives dynamic IP's. I would like to use a Dynamic DNS service so we can address the boxes as foo.somewhere.com for remote managment. Does anyone have a recommendation of a free / non free etc for a Dynamic DNS service?
Note the Meshbox is a brutally stripped 2.4.x kernel so deploying software to it is a problem, dependency hell and I also don't want to mess too much with the base config. Ideally, a stand alone executable for the client update or a really really well crafted shell script. I can get wget and cron running on it so I am considering writing a web service that sits on our primary end and cron can call wget and POST the output of IFCONFIG; the web service can parse out the dynamic IP from the IFCONFIG output. Another possibility is to grab the IP from the wiana.org registry; unfortunately they don't have a web service for it so it would involve a script that parses out the IP from the HTML, but that would break if wiana decides to change the HTML or if wiana discontinues operations. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
