Re: Help with thttpd
installed ddclient for my desktop pc. I thought you should install it on the box you wanted to show to the world. Now comes the big problem. I must implement Zoran's idea to get my 770 automatically sending its IP to dyndns server. Zoran's ideas come and go. If I read correct, client is in perl and will work on 770. So, 770 has to send new address to central server, to update dns. You only know the name (sebas.homedns.org). On the desktop you type that name in browser and voila. 770 gets its IP from a phone connection. This means that my phone company changes its IP every time I connect the device to the net. I've got no experience with scripts, but I'll do my best, and maybe it'll be the first of a long list :) It will cost, I think. Why not simply use existing provider, for the same amount of cash? You could get the domain, dns servers, place to store your ideas. Or just experiment inside local net, till you feel ready to be the man, who has 1M/sec connections on just one 770.

Kon, can the LInux version be installed as a service? I ask this only because, although your www page indicates that it DOES install as a service, the www page that you reference, http://inadyn.ina-tech.net/readme.html#install suggests that the LInux version only runs as a user or script initiated executable. Did you modify the version at the inadyn.ina-tech.net www site to make it install as a Linux service?

You mean as a daemon of some sort? I didn't call it a service... in any case I don't see why you would want to - just trigger it with an ifup script.

Kon, the only reason would be to avoid having to use/modify scripts or .conf files. Having said that I will look into getting a dyndns account and trying this out.

You would need a small program on your 770 to update the dyndns IP every time you connect. Debian had a bunch of these packaged, it shouldn't be too difficult to port one.

Re: Help with thttpd
Thank you, Zoran. I'll try to implement your ideas. As Marius said, dynamic dns is a good solution. I've just opened an account at dyndns site. I've installed ddclient for my desktop pc.

I've got no experience with scripts, but I'll do my best, and maybe it'll be the first of a long list :) It would be easier if there was a fine package of ddclient. But I suppose that binaries available at dyndns are not useful for 770, am I right? 2007/2/18, Zoran Kolic [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I've installed and run it to get easy access to my 770 via a Web browser.
