Re: dyndns.org clients

 Hi,
 
 I'm looking for a dyndns.org client. I've used ddup for years but it is
 deleted for quite some time now. ipcheck is not a solution because it
 requires python. I don't want to install a whole scripting language for
 just keeping my IP at dyndns.org up to date on my router.
 
 So I'm looking for a dyndns.org client which is written in C (perl is
 also not an option). Does someone know a port?
 
 Otherwise I propably have to resurrect ddup...

I would recommend dns/ddclient; however, it is PERL based. Is there any 
specific reason that using a Perl program is verboten?

Hi,

I think dns/ez-ipupdate will suit you.  (http://ez-ipupdate.com/)

I would require me to install perl and I want to keep the installed
software on my router as low as possible.

Hi Oliver,

on my OpenBSD Firewall I have simple shell script running, that takes
care of the ip-address update for dyndns.org. This works as dyndns.org
aloows updates via http.

I fetched the script below from some howto or mailinglists, but I can't
remember where :/

#!/bin/sh
LOG=/var/log/update_dyndns.log
DYNIP=`ifconfig pppoe0 | grep 'inet ' | awk '{print $2}'`

echo `date` : Update dyndns.org: ${DYNIP}  ${LOG}
/usr/bin/lynx -dump -auth=${1}:${2}
http://members.dyndns.org/nic/update?system
=dyndnshostname=${3}myip=${DYNIP}  ${LOG}

#EOF

All you need is to run the script and pass username, password and
domain as parameters. This runs beautiful! I was in the very same
situation as you. The perl solution wasn't what I was searching for and
some Python scripts seemed to be overkill for a small embedded
firewall like mine. So I went using this approach. Lynx also is
available in base on OpenBSD.

Hope this may help you :)
