Ok guys, something new and exciting to
think about ... Got a nasty gram from
DynDNS today ... Seems they do not like
the way that Astlinux is handling
registration with them ... If I understand the note
correctly, they have
blocked future registration from this
server ...
The machine I am dealing with here is the
one that I keep at home to link me
to my main office ... Unfortunately, my
home setup is behind a Cox cable
modem with a single dynamic IP address so
this is an important feature to me
... The server is a LEX NEO box with
3xRealtec NIC's on the motherboard ...
It is pretty vanilla and has no PCI cards
in it ... It acts as my
router/firewall and as a slave to my main
office Astlinux server ... It runs
Astlinux 0.4.4 in router/firewall mode
... I am presently using the ASTFW
firewall feature set ... I upgraded this
one to 0.4.4 only about a week ago

Something new and exciting in the dynamic
dns registration piece ???????

START MSG FROM DYNDNS
*******************************
A hostname you had registered with
Dynamic Network Services, Inc. (DynDNS),
ghend-pbx.homeip.net, has been deleted
from our systems.
This hostname has been deleted a week
after the last legitimate update prior
to its blocking. Our policies forbid
multiple successive updates from the
same IP address for performance and
resource-conservation purposes; such
updates have no function, and use
resources which could better serve others.
If you are using a hardware router's
built-in update functionality, it is
most likely not properly functional; we
recommend that you contact your
router's manufacturer regarding this
issue and ask them to contact us for
assistance correcting their products to
interface properly with our systems.
Until such a time that you see an
announcement on our site about your
specific router functioning properly with
our systems, we recommend using a
instead, and being certain to disable the
update functionality of your
router.
You can re-create this hostname at your
convenience, and we suggest that you
re-examine your update procedures and
read our abuse policy at
SNIP
