Try ddclient. A perl based client to update your dynamic IP address at DynDNS.com (or other dynamic DNS services such as Hammernode, Zoneedit or EasyDNS), thus allowing you and others to use a fixed hostname (myhost.dyndns.org) to access your machine. This client supports both the dynamic and (near) static services, MX setting, and alternative host. It caches the address, and only attempts the update if the address actually changes.
Runs as a daemon too :) On Dec 15, 2007 2:41 PM, Amos Shapira <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello, > > It seems that the no-ip.org client I've been using for a few years now > has stopped updating the account. > > I'm leaving for a few weeks in a couple of days and don't have time to > investigate this too much, so I opened an account with dyndns.org and > setup my home but all the packages I found for Debian Etch seem to be > talking about ddns.nu (which is different?) or require manual > invocation. > > Is there a simple daemon a-la the one provided for no-ip.org to keep > my address up to date within a reasonable interval? > > Thanks, > > --Amos > > ================================================================= > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with > the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command > echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > -- | | Alex Alexander | http://linuxized.blogspot.com | http://www.nerd.gr \
